Don%26#039;t you think this is wrong? Every school in NYC is teaching global warming and climate change from one side of the story. They are only teaching what they believe. This is wrong, teachers keep saying its all man made and all, thats their side of the story for crying out loud!!!!!
My teacher is now saying global warming is no longer a theory...wtf... it still is a theory..

she should teach every point of view of global warming weather its true or not!!!!!

lol i dont know what to say in responce to such.... ignorance?
%26quot;Prof. Naomi Oreskes (Dec. 2004)... surveyed 928 scientific journal articles... 75% agreed with the consensus view (either implicitly or explicitly), 25% took no stand one way or the other, and none rejected the consensus.

The public however is led to believe that global warming is controversial by a very sophisticated and well funded effort underway to convince people of that. The Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard University, documents how the media supports the false appearance of controversy on the topic of global warming:

Creating controversy where science finds consensus
http://www.fair.org/index.php?page=1978
%26quot;A new study has found that when it comes to U.S. media coverage of global warming , superficial balance—telling %26quot;both%26quot; sides of the story—can actually be a form of informational bias.%26quot;

Media False Balancing Allowed Extreme Views to be Treated Same as Scientific Consensus

The sometimes truthless nature of media and advertising should be taught to the kids too. Too many adults these days simply believe what%26#039;s convenient. With the sophistication of industry propaganda campaigns these days, our children need to develop much greater crticial thinking skills.

Yes, there is a difference. Global warming has a lot more observational data points than the theory of evolution, and has survived a lot more scientific scrutiny, hasn%26#039;t it?

IPCC procedures allow the data to be changed to match the conclusions. Go here:
http://www.ipcc.ch/pdf/ipcc-principles/i...
and search for this on page 4 in the 3rd paragraph:
%26quot;Changes (other than grammatical or minor editorial changes) made after acceptance by the Working Group or the Panel shall be those
necessary to ensure consistency with the Summary for Policymakers or the Overview Chapter%26quot;
Why would they have to change the data part? What did the Summary for Policymakers not match the data?
Ask your teacher if this is accepted practice at your school. Can you change the data to support your conclusion? If not, why should you accept any part of the data or conclusions of the IPCC report when the conclusions do not need to be consistent with the data and the data can be changed?

Read this and all other material on the site. A high school students refutes CO2 as the cause of global warming.

Yes I think it%26#039;s wrong. There%26#039;s a big difference between the %26quot;theory%26quot; of evolution and the %26quot;theory%26quot; of man-made global warming.

I totally agree, they should present both sides.

I totally agree with u.
