Others said that the series was a lost opportunity for climate change education.

“It’s kind of like doing a powerful documentary about lung cancer and leaving out the part about the cigarettes,” said Bill McKibben, a scholar and climate change activist. “There’s no scientific mystery here: the poles are changing because we’re burning so much carbon.”

New iPad App Uses Photo Timelines to Show Climate Change - Forbes

Two climate scientists, Katharine Hayhoe of Texas Tech University and Todd Stanford at the Union of Concerned Scientists, served as content consultants for the app. Dr. Hayhoe shared in the Nobel Prize awarded to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 2007.

...Red Hill Studios will donate half of the money it receives from Apple for downloads of the $1.99 app to the Union of Concerned Scientists to aid its research on the effects of climate change on our planet.
