A new paper published in Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A, explains weaknesses in our understanding of climate change and how we can fix them. These issues mean predictions vary wildly about how quickly temperatures will rise. This has serious implications for long term political and economic planning. The paper's lead author is Dr Nigel Fox of The National Physical Laboratory, The UK's National Measurement Institution.
