'''Berkley Earth''' was created by Richard and Elizabeth Muller in 2010 when they addressed the five major concerns of [[climate change]] skeptics. The study released in 2012 addressed alleged biases from data selection, data adjustment, poor station quality, and the urban heat island effect as well as an over reliance on climate modeling by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The analysis showed the issues addressed did not unduly bias the climate record. <ref>http://www.berkeleyearth.org/about</ref>
