An environmental problem that has been attracting more and more attention
is the possibility of global warming. The United Nations produced a report
from the Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change in September of 2001 that
maintained that global warming is a serious problem. Professor Holdren of
Harvard University has produced a PowerPoint
presentation illustrating the problem. The Environmental Protection Agency
has an interesting web site
explaining the problem.
However, not everyone believes global warming is happening or, if it is, it
is not a serious problem. The "cooler heads coalition" offers a
website that disagrees with the
theory of global warming. The Global Warming Information Center offers a website
that also offers arguments sceptical of global warming theory. Michael Crichton,
the best selling author, has given a speech entitled: "The
Case for Skepticism on Global Warming.
