As we talked about climate change or global warming in classes, I realize how controversial issue it is. Some say climate change or global warming is reality that truly threatens our lives as we could see through Hurricane Katrina or Tsunami. However, some other may also argue that there is no scientific evidence that global warming or climate change is really happening, and even it occurs, there is no scientifically proven relationship between warming of the globe with recent natural disaster. These websites also present very different but both persuasive arguments.
The “Friends of Science” website has best interest in disproving the myths that most people including myself believe to be true. They argued that there is no scientific evidence of climate change or global warming. I thought this website presented updated information on fast moving and ever changing issue of climate change. In addition, the website was designed in the manner where I could easily follow. The arguments were stated easy and straightforward that people with not much back ground of environment could easily understand. I found them very convincing and believable. However, it would be more trustworthy if they sited where they took these information from.
The “how to talk to a climate skeptic” website countered many arguments presented in the “Friends of Science” website. The “how to talk to a climate skeptic” website has very different format from another one. It has linkages on different issue that leads us to blog look like web pages. I did not find this website very convincing, because I was not sure how creditable are the posts from random people. Even though this website has much more information than the “Friends of Science” website does, it was hard to follow and not that trustful.
