Climate Change Library

> Supporting scientists engaged in climate change research with access to over 5,000 articles.

This has to be one of the most appalling PR moves in recent memory. How about they release all the human knowledge they hold hostage that has been funded by taxpayer money?

Why does anyone need Elsevier, especially so in 2019? Get rid of them! Publicly funded science needs to be open access at ALL TIMES.

This is just a promotional campaign by Elsevier to get people to sign up for mendeley. From https://www.mendeley.com/campaign/about-climate-change

> The articles are available for all existing and new Mendeley users to download and read. It is free to setup a Mendeley account, please click here if you need to setup an account. The articles will be available to download this year (until 31 December 2019). However, researchers will have access to the articles permanently once they have downloaded them.

> No, these articles are still subject to their original copyright arrangements and may not be shared unless you are the author or a library that subscribes to ScienceDirect, in which case you may have additional private sharing rights.

If you want to do something about climate change, a paper called Tackling Climate Change with Machine Learning[0] just came out, and under Tools for Individuals a startup called Tomorrow[1] is mentioned. I know they're actively looking for help to get more integrations to their app to calculate people's personal CO2 emissions.

These should be free from the start.

Requiring login to view PDF files is pretty annoying.
