If you were a Federal (US) government secretary (maybe the EPA director?) or a delegate to the United Nations in charge of doing something about either global warming or the decline of worldwide biodiversity, what would be your recommendations? In your position paper, take a clear stance, supported by evidence that either confirms or questions the importance or urgency of this global issue. Using this evidence, clearly define the background of the issue and your positions. Are there impacts if action is not taken? Then make recommendations about how to proceed to address this global issue. What policies would you implement? Why? Are there impacts if action is not taken? Explain.
In this assignment you actually get to choose whether you want to report on global warming OR the decline of biodiversity. Please DO NOT DO BOTH.
I would like to see enough information concerning global warming or biodiversity that demonstrates that you fully understand what global warming/biodiversity is, what causes it, and what the potential consequences are.

Science is the ability of anybody to review a set of data and be able to come up with the same conclusions.
As scientist are not in agreement about GW, then it is only a theory.
If I were writing your paper, I would analyze why it is still a theory and the costs to the economies of the world for addressing GW if it turns out to be naturally occuring.
Is man such a fragile animal that he would not survive an increase in temperature by 4 degrees?
