Week 7: Is it Warming or Cooling? Make up your mind!

Hey Scholars,

This week's topic is global climate change. The current scientific view point is that our climate is slowly warming. Prior to this current belief, there were scholars that thought we were headed for an ice age. Even movies such as The Day After Tomorrow depict this. This week we will reinforce Science's Current Perspective but for this week's post I want you to find alternate opinions on this subject. Post the link where you found your info.

Do you think there is a coincidence between the recent decades Natural Disasters/ Weird Weather and Global Warming? Give your explanation and if you use others research/info. make sure you cite it (properly).
