Is "global warming" actually happening? If so, are humans causing it? Or, is climate change occurring because of natural fluctuations in the system? We will be discussing these questions and more in our Socratic Seminar on Climate Change, which will occur during class on Wednesday. In between now and then, you will be preparing yourself to contribute (intelligently!) to that discussion. I will give you a list of questions that will be addressed, and you may use the links provided to research the issue of climate change. Remember to have an open mind, so that your arguments will be well-informed.
The list of questions that may be discussed is on your paper packet, and they are also posted here: Google Doc; Word Document). Feel free to write notes on it as you research. You may use these notes during the discussion.
Here is the list of links:
