Since my most hit upon post was about global warming pictures, here is another place to look. But if you are doing research for a school paper, please read this.
I shouldn't be surprised that most schools are having students do papers or homework on global warming. It is a hot button liberal issue that is being forced down the younger generations throat. The sad thing is it is not just a liberal issue, it's a humanity issue. But the left has turned it into a do-or-die Earth ending catastrophe, that must be dealt with now or we will all be doomed. It is getting old.
So, I suggest you look into BOTH sides. The scientists who question the current craziness of global warming are not questioning the rising temperature, they are questioning the science behind the hype. Don't be fooled by the alarmism. Don't be fooled by the IPCC. Look for yourself. Do some of your own research and read other sources of science. There are many qualified scientists who reject the notion that we are killing the Earth.
We need to do better, but humans may only be a small part of the problem. Our solar system and our planet are very complex. We can't possibly make predictions about climate based on computer models that are simply lacking all the historical information of climate change that the Earth has experienced over millions of years. Can the IPCC be that confident? They may say they are, but it's still only theory. Theory and fact are two entirely different things.
Let's put it back into perspective. We should teach science to our children that is grounded in tested theory and fact not glamourized and politicized hyperbole.
As the saying goes, 'A child's mind is a terrible thing to waste'.
