Climate Change summary by Royal Society
"Climate change continues to be a subject of intense public and political debate. Because of the level of interest in the topic the Royal Society has produced a new guide to the science of climate change. The guide summarises the current scientific evidence on climate change and its drivers, highlighting the areas where the science is well established, where there is still some debate, and where substantial uncertainties remain.
The document was prepared by a working group chaired by Professor John Pethica, Vice President of the Royal Society and was approved by the Royal Society Council."

I've only skimmed it so far (need to get some stuff ready for this evening) but it looks like a summary that should take no more than 20 mins to read and be accessible to anyone with a general science background.. It does indeed seem to do what it says on the tin, say what degree of certainty we have for different factors relating to climate change. I'll probably comment further tomorrow when I've read it in detail.
