This article addresses an issue that I believe is going to become a much more serious problem in the coming years. The idea of climate change due to human actions is something that has been hugely debated and researched in the twenty first century. The primary issue addressed in this paper is that this, almost strictly scientific, topic has turned very into a left-wing vs. right-wing political debate. Right-wing republicans have the weathermen on their side while left-wing democrats have the environmental researchers on their side. The author of this article addresses the major problem of this debate is that the hard factual research done by scientists is being partially ignored because the weathermen who are in the public eye, do not believe the research of these scientists. This dilemma is drastically slowing the solution to the problem of climate change because the public only sees the views of weathermen who ignore the research done. As for the structure of the essay, it is very interesting to look at the underlying political debate going on here. The reader can clearly see that the author is on the left wing side of the argument. Although the author does seem to take a clear stance which can ruin his credibility, he does keep his credibility in my opinion by using a multitude of good factual evidence and statistics to back his controversial views.
