Abstract :
Possible changes in the world´s climate resulting from human use of fossil fuel is perhaps the most serious problem facing the human race. The statistical problems in this area are also challenging; are we changing the climate in a measurable way, or are the currently perceived changes simply a result of natural variability? This paper outlines some of the statistical problems and a few examples that can be found in climate statistics
