The Voice of Heard/The Science and Non-science of Global Warming
Submitted by TC Tim on June 16, 2008 - 12:41pm.
Global Warming is a rather complicated debate in political, economic, and scientific grounds. An increasing number of scientists agree that the recent climate change is being caused by human activity, mainly releasing gases like carbon dioxide, nitros oxide, and methane into the atmosphere. Other people who are skeptical of global warming question the scientific validity of climate change. Meanwhile, most business interests see the global warming issue as a threat to the economy.
If you consider global warming an issue that needs to be addressed, check out these websites below (these are just examples):
This website is a blog maintained by climate scientists, which deals with the science of global warming and the skeptics as they appear in popular and academic literature.

This website is run by Greenpeace, an environmental activist group. It is the most interactive website I have ever encountered. It maps the links between global warming skeptics and funding from the fossil fuel industry.
http://www.skepticalscience.com
This website addresses the arguments made by skeptics and what the science actually says about such arguments.
Based on my own investigations, I will have to make the following conclusions: global warming is a serious issue, something must be done about it, and it must be understood in the most reasonable and scientific manner possible.
