The National Academy of Sciences, National Research Council, Board on Atmospheric Science and Climate, has produced this movie to explain what is known about climate science.

I directed the movie working with the NAS and many different science organizations and scientists that assisted in development of the many different aspects of science illustrated in the movie.

Climate Change: Lines of Evidence:

The production took 16 months from beginning to end and we finished with a very good movie that helps simplify the science and clearly show the general state of knowledge regarding the nearly two centuries of development in the study of climate change.
