In Summary…

Now you have your information……time to state your claim

The research clearly states that Carbon Dioxide is the most important of the green house gases.

You however must explain why…..

Why is CO2 (that’s Carbon Dioxide…btw) the most important?

What do we need to do in order to reduce it?

Do we need to reduce it or is it just being blown out of proportion?

Debate

Is CO2 really the worst of the green house gases and is what we are doing to control it enough?

You must be ready with your arguments (points) and counter arguments (what others may say). You must have enough information to discuss each side.
