The Nerd Corner is a one-stop shop for nerds and the nerd-curious to learn about and keep up to speed with climate science, policy, and economics research. Our corner includes analyses done and commissioned by the CCL Research Team, summaries of other relevant studies (for example in laser talks and other tools), a discussion forum, and a Chart of the Week. It's easy to be overwhelmed by the daily deluge of new information about record extreme weather, its impacts on the economy, and new climate policy proposals, but the CCL Research Team aims to condense it all into plain English summaries. Come nerd out with us!
