•If no, how would you argue this to someone who “believes” in climate change?
•If yes, how would you argue this to someone who doesn’t “believe” in climate change?
Is there scientific evidence to support anthropogenic climate change?

Enhanced Greenhouse Effect
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) 40% increase since
the industrial revolution
Sources: fossil fuel use, deforestation
Methane (CH4) 8x stronger effect
than CO2
Sources: energy, rice paddies, waste
Nitrous Oxide (N2O) Source: fertilizer

Globalization context
Causes: Fossil fuels (Energy)
Transportation Manufacturing Electricity
Deforestation Agriculture Urbanization Natural resource
extraction Waste
Impacts: Refugees Resource shortages
Water Food
Circulation patterns Mitigation:
E.g., sea level rise Adaptation

Why is climate change controversial?
Like evolution, climate change has become a battle of “belief.” De-“sciencizes” the issue; scientists lose
authority. Mitigation asks people to act
against their immediate self interests.
Climate change is “inconvenient” to political agendas.

Scientific evidence of climate change
Change: February 2012 marks the 324th consecutive
month with a global temperature above the 20th century average. (NOAA)
The last month with below average temperatures was February 1985. (NOAA)
Anthropogenic change: Observed warming over the last 50 years is
very likely due to the increase in greenhouse gas concentration. (IPCC)
Fossil fuel use, deforestation, agriculture, waste.
