Som notes about the dawn of climatic research

This work brings a brief review of the beginnings of the interest to the study of issues related with anthropogenic climate change. The main events, such as the work of Fourier about greenhouse effect or the first energy balance model used by Svante Arrhenius, are revised until the first instrumental measurements of the rising concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide at Mauna Loa Observatory (Hawaii).
