The Understanding Climate Change booklet was produced by the Government to assist in raising awareness and understanding of climate change issues in the community. The booklet aims to increase knowledge and understanding by clearly answering questions people often ask about the greenhouse effect and climate change:

• what is the greenhouse effect?
• what are the greenhouse gases?
• explain the role of greenhouse sinks and carbon sequestration.
• how will Victoria's climate change?
• what will be the impacts of climate change on Victoria and Australia?

A pdf version of Understanding Climate Change is available at www.greenhouse.vic.gov.au and additional copies can be obtained from the Department of Sustainability and Environment's Customer Service Centre, phone 136 186.
