Here is a series of questions that is based on the subject of the most recent documentary
http://archive.org/details/ClimateHustle
You need to watch this video in its entirety before working on these questions.
- Were the 2 videos (Gore’s film and the Climate Hustle) in agreement with each other? Please elaborate (i.e. were there any differences)? Was there any agenda in either one or both films, if so please explain?
- What was the “human engineering” example presented by a professor in the Climate Hustle film?
- Global warming aka Climate Change as is popularly referenced in contemporary discussion today is basically based on one variable. What is that variable and how did each film approach it? Please give supporting examples.
- Is it possible to tell, using scientific methods or historical accounts (or both) whether changes in climate are due to “human causes” (Anthroprogenic) or as a result of “natural variations”?
- What do you feel most people that are asked the question of whether climate change is due to “natural cycles” or ”human causes” will respond? Why?
- In the Climate Hustle video was there disagreement between scientists regarding climate change (as opposed to how this question was presented/answered in An Inconvenient Truth)?
- Are all viewpoints treated evenly in this debate? Give specific examples from the videos to justify your answer.
- The following is a look at historical anthropological as well as climatological temperature data, with research from the 1930s revealing some important findings about Greenland’s climate within the last roughly 1000 years:
