Appendix. A Decade of Climate Change
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Since the release of the 3rd Assessment Reports from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (ipcc) in 2001, there have been many efforts to engage the American public.This is not a comprehensive timeline but an overview of events and changes relevant to this book.2001 The IPCC, an international organization of thousands of climate scientists, representing 130 countries, and formed by the World Meteorological Organization and United Nations Environment Programme, releases its 3rd Assessment Reports.-Sheila Watt-Cloutier begins four-year term as chair of the Inuit Circumpolar Council (ICC).-Following the founding of their Energy and Climate Change program a year earlier, Ceres, a corporate social responsibility group based in Boston, meets to discuss how to link risk to climate change.-Gallup begins polling Americans about whether news coverage of climate change is exaggerated, correct, or underreported.By 2010, those who see news coverage as exaggerated will reach a high of 48 percent.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
