In 2010, the Geological Society published a statement on climate change, focusing specifically on the geological evidence. This year, the society reconvened the working group to assess whether, in the light of further research, the statement was still valid. On concluding that it is, the group have written an addendum which sets out new research findings relevant to the questions raised in the original statement.

The full addendum, along with a summary aimed at a non-technical audience, are published today, and can be found on the Geological Society of London  website: www.geolsoc.org.uk/climatechange
