Concord.org - Contents

The mission of the Concord Consortium is to foster equity and self-realization through improved education. The greatest and most underexploited opportunity for advancing this mission is through educational technologies. We know that students at all ages are capable of learning more, earlier, and at a far deeper level than is currently achieved and we have seen this kind of learning in well-designed schools that have creative teachers and use excellent, computer-based materials. Our goal is to make this the norm.

Climate Change - Global Climate Change Initiative - global warming - climate change - The Nature Conservancy

Climate change is already affecting our lives and the places we live, and has the potential to dramatically impact the lives of future generations. The Nature Conservancy is joining with policy makers, community members, businesses, scientists, industry leaders and others to slow the pace of climate change. We work to reduce the accumulation of heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere and help natural areas adjust to the impacts of climate change.

IPCC - Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change

The IPCC was established to provide the decision-makers and others interested in climate change with an objective source of information about climate change. The IPCC does not conduct any research nor does it monitor climate related data or parameters. Its role is to assess on a comprehensive, objective, open and transparent basis the latest scientific, technical and socio-economic literature produced worldwide relevant to the understanding of the risk of human-induced climate change, its observed and projected impacts and options for adaptation and mitigation. IPCC reports should be neutral with respect to policy, although they need to deal objectively with policy relevant scientific, technical and socio economic factors. They should be of high scientific and technical standards, and aim to reflect a range of views, expertise and wide geographical coverage.
