## About Us

Skeptical Science gets skeptical about climate change "skepticism." We combat the flood of climate misinformation by presenting **peer-reviewed science** and explaining the techniques of science denial, climate delay discourse, and solutions denial.

### Our Mission

Global warming is real and human-caused. Our simple mission: **debunk climate misinformation** by bridging the gap between climate science and public understanding.
