A lot of my research that I have found so far deals with politics, and I'm struggling to find opinionated articles that help support the perspectives category.
Class questions to focus on:
What widely-held and/or alternative views do people living in the US, and in the world, have about the climate of our planet? Upon what are these views based? (Data, ideology, culture, propaganda, research, etc., ?)
When it comes to discussion of the climate, around what issues or questions does there seem to be debate?
“Why is our climate changing so rapidly?” / “Is global warming real?”
Data:
- Republicans are beginning to believe now more than ever the effects of climate change
- Poll from Monmouth university says the 70% of people polled believe in climate change.
- ⅔ of the respondents called for action against climate change
- Approxamately 27% believe that humans are the cause of climate change.
- When these people that were polled think climate, they think rising sea levels and extreme weather changes
I plan to do my own poll with in the Randolph community. As well as find blogs of possible about climate change. It is just a matter of where I look to find these blogs, I may need some help finding such blogs.
