A small team of diverse scientists have received big money to try and resolve once and for all the contentious debate over climate change. Berkeley Earth says they will differ from past similar attempts by making all of their research and analysis open for review. Berkeley Earth is funded by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Fund for Innovative Climate and Energy Research and the Koch Foundation, among others. [California Watch]
