change policy." Evidence &
Policy: A Journal of Research, Debate, and Practice 14.4
(2018): 571-587.
The authors of the article have focused on the knowledge that
people have on matters related to climate change. The Dutch
have been the people focused on in this research. The main aim
is to know if people know more about the facts associated with

7. climate change. The knowledge that people have on an issue
dictates how prepared they can be. The article has concluded
that the Dutch Policy has done a recommendable job to inform
people about climate change.
The information that has been presented in the article was
published in 2018. Therefore, it means that it is updated
information. The publisher of an article can be used to dictate
the credibility. The publisher, in this case, is peer-reviewed. It,
therefore, means that this information can be used in research.
Bell, Allan. "Media (mis) communication on the science of
climate change." Public
understanding of science (2016).
The article states that there is an issue when it comes to
communication about the science of climate change. Sometimes
the right message is not passed to members of the public for
different reasons. Lack of effective communication affects the
circulation of climate change information. As a result, the
members of the public are ambushed by climate uncertainties.
The media being the most trusted channel in communication
takes the most significant blame.
The relevance of the piece of information that has been
presented cannot be doubted. The topic of concentration
revolves around the research topic. The period of publication is
also recent. Therefore, the information can be relied on and
trusted. With this in mind, the piece of information will be
useful to this research.

coverage, and public concern: an
integrated path analysis of public opinion on climate change,

Politics 26.2 (2017): 232-252.
The knowledge that the members of the public have on a given
issue can be used to dictate if education on the same issue has

8. been promoted. The article has looked at the impact on the
media in passing important information. At the same time, the
opinion of the members of the public has been focused on. The
debates that are promoted by the members of the public makes it
easy to know what they know about any given issue.
The authors of the article are a well-known scholar. Their
professionalism precedes them. At the same time, the
information that they have presented is relevant to the research.
The sources of the information are credible. Therefore, the
article can be used to add more data to the research.

In the case of any miscommunication, source of information
carry the most prominent dream. The accuracy of information
has been focused on. The article states that there is a connection
between what people know and what the media covers. The
media has been termed as a threat when it presents information
that is not factual. As a result, sometimes, members of the
public are misinformed about climate change.
The credibility of a source is dictated by the quality of
information. The data that has been used to provide the findings
is factual. The sources of information about the materials that
have been used are also reliable. The areas that the article has
covered are also covered in the research. The article would be
of great use to the research.

climate: lessons learned and future
needs." Atmospheric chemistry and physics 15.14 (2015): 8217-
8299.

9. The author states that there are many lessons that should be
learned from air quality and climate. The possession of
information is one of the issues that are present on matters that
are associated with climate change. It is essential for the
members of the public to be informed of any climate change
that might affect them. Doing so makes it easier to deal with
issues when they arise. When people are aware that an issue
may occur, they are prepared to deal with the issue before it
hits.
The authors of the article are certified, researchers. At the same
time, the publisher is trusted. The information is only four years
old, and that makes it an updated piece of information. The
information it presents adds value to the research. With this in
mind, it is appropriate to use it for this research.
Holland, Greg, and Cindy L. Bruyère. "Recent intense hurricane
response to global climate
change." Climate Dynamics 42.3-4 (2014): 617-627.
The authors agree that there are issues that might affect the
lives of people if climate changes are not studied well. The
recent case of the hurricane has been used as an example in the
article. The magnitude of the hurricane was not well predicted.
With such errors, it is evident that clarity is needed in passing
climate change information. At the same time, the effects of the
hurricane were proof that much needs to be explored about
climate change.
The data that has been presented come from real-life events. For
example, the use of the hurricane is an excellent way to show
the practicality of the issue at hand. The article has been peer-
reviewed. Therefore, the information that is present is certified
in terms of being used for research and academics. Therefore,
the information would be useful for research.

Climate change has a lot of effects on the environment. One of
the recent worrying issues is the increasing level of seawater.
The melting of the ice in oceans has accelerated. The
temperatures are also increasing. It, therefore, shows that
climate change is also affecting the water bodies and sources.
The article has been peer-reviewed by scientists. Therefore, the
information that has been presented is scientifically approved.
The authors are also certified, researchers. The content
presented adds more knowledge to matters of climate change.
Using it will be advisable because of the value that it adds to
the research.

Climate Change Annotated Bibliography
Seinfeld, John H., and Spyros N. Pandis. Atmospheric chemistry
and physics: from air pollution to climate change. John Wiley &

11. Sons, 2016.
This publication basically covers the various aspects of the
climate change as it relates to the general chemistry and the
physics of the society. It was mainly published to try and
explain the general changes that take place in the society as it
relates to the chemistry and the physical state of the globe.
According to this article the general changes that take place in
the atmosphere like the air pollution and such like activities are
generally physical or chemical in nature. The article has
covered the various theories that surround the chemical changes
in the society like the thermodynamics and the theory of
homogenous nucleation. The authors of this article were mainly
focusing on the climatic change and covering the catalysing
factors which motivate the changes in the atmosphere. A good
example in the article has explained the manner the chemical
reactions in the atmosphere have impacted the ozone layer. The
climate change has mainly been promoted by the chemical
reactions in the atmosphere.
Edenhofer, Ottmar, ed. Climate change 2014: mitigation of
climate change. Vol. 3. Cambridge University Press, 2015.
Edenhofer has mainly focused on the manner the society can
take care of the climate change. The climate change has been
outlined to be a very serious issue in the society and the article
has outlined the adverse implication it has on the society; it has
therefore discussed the various approaches the society may
follow to contain the situation. The best way to handle the
climatic change and the implication it has on the society is to
come up with an appropriate way to manage and generally try
controlling it.

12. This article has mainly focused on the general areas of the
climate change in the society right from the cultural aspects, the
manner the media has implicated the change. This change has
taken place in the global arena. There have been several views
that people have given on the general climate change and the
way the implications have change the human life including the
cultures and so. This article has therefore covered the climate
change based on the media point of view.

There are several varying opinions that have come up on the
climate change and different scholars have derived opinions on
the same. This article was generally giving the author’s opinion
on the climate change subject. The article has actually covered
variety of review on the same topic of climate change.
