I am doing a research paper for Global Warming?

Question

Anybody know of any scientists or articles pertaining to Global warming. I am not making you do all the work I am also looking but any pointers to a certain scientists who specialises in GW or a good artical, I would apreciate it greatly. Thank you!

Answer 1

if you want all you have to do is click on my picture and go to my 360 profile, I also did a lot of research on this subject. I would click on the link for wesjones at the bottom of my paper that is Elizabeth's Kolbert's artical. she is the best scientist that I know of for this subject. you will know everything about global warming from this artical.

go to my 360 and click on my blog list it will say "Global warming on the rise" and at the bottom of this blog are the links. Hope this helps.

Today's news on Yahoo had a story about the Northwest passage opening up. The ice has melted to the extent that ships can go from Europe to Asia without passing through the Panama Canal.

Here are two summaries of the mountain of peer reviewed data that convinced the vast majority of the scientific community, short and very long. The long version has hundreds of references with scientists names.

There's vastly less controversy in the scientific community than you might guess from the few skeptics talked about here:

Here are some scientists views:

"Global warming is already starting, and there's going to be more of it. I think there is still time to deal with global warming, but we need to act soon. Humans now control global climate, for better or worse."

James Hansen, Ph.D. climate scientist, NASA

"Global warming is the most challenging problem our society has ever had to face up to. Ice is the canary in the coal mine of global warming."

Britain's chief scientist David King

"By mid-century, millions more poor children around the world are likely to face displacement, malnourishment, disease and even starvation unless all countries take action now to slow global warming."

Michael Oppenheimer, professor of geosciences and international affairs at Princeton University

"We are not saying that the Earth's temperature is just going to rise. In general, as energy is added to a system, the fluctuations in the system increase. So, we expect more storms, more droughts, more wildfires, more floods, more fluctuations of all kinds. What we are saying is that weather conditions will become more volatile due to the impact of humans."

-- S. Mukherjee & D. Brouse (2004)

"The drafting of reports by the world’s pre-eminent group of climate scientists is an odd process. For many months scientists contributing to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change tussle over the evidence. Nothing gets published unless it achieves consensus. This means that the panel’s reports are extremely conservative – even timid. It also means that they are as trustworthy as a scientific document can be."

George Monbiot

"The fact that the community overwhelmingly supports the consensus is evidenced by picking up any copy of Journal of Climate or similar, any scientific program at the meetings, or simply going to talk to scientists. I challenge you, if you think there is some un-reported division, show me the hundreds of abstracts that support your view - you won't be able to. You can argue whether the consensus is correct, or what it really implies, but you can't credibly argue it doesn't exist."

Dr. James Baker - NOAA

"There's a better scientific consensus on this [climate change] than on any issue I know.
Global warming is almost a no-brainer at this point,You really can't find intelligent, quantitative arguments to make it go away."

Dr. Jerry Mahlman, NOAA

Here's a website run by several named climatologists.

Answer 4

i might advise right here articles, so which you have some stability. there is not any question the globe has warmed because of the fact the final Ice Age, or that it keeps to heat interior the positioned up-business era (a minimum of, till 1998). The question is approximately no rely if an significant and actually trivial hint gasoline (CO2) might reason the "catastrophic tipping factor" interior the climate - a question that the Alarmists keep shifting the "rapture" for because of the fact the information would not reflect their theories all that nicely.....

Answer 5

Woods Hole Research Center

Answer 6

It doesn't exist except in the minds of unimportant politicians and celebrities. That is why you can't find it. I bet you could find a lot more information refuting it than you can confirming it.
