    Scientists predict the future effects of climate change according reports. Temperatures will continue to increase, and seasons will lengthen. There will be more frequent extreme weather and a rise in sea level.
  •  
    Climate change is too often ignored, I'm glad that NASA has ongoing updates about the situation. More people should be accessing this site in order to educate themselves.
  •  
    This is a great article it is also important to know that if we don't get on track it could be too late to reverse the damage. Also how deserts would become even worse wastelands and the weather would be too extreme on earth to be inhabitable.
  •  
    Using NASA as a source for climate change is great. This is a great web source for being able to quickly see what scientists are saying in active research.
  •  
    I found this article to be very informative on the effects of climate change. I was not aware that hurricanes would become worse and growing seasons increase.

    Being a federal agency, it shocks me that many do not believe in climate change despite being presented with facts by NASA, itself. I like that the evidence portion of this site provides visuals to better understand and acknowledge the reality of climate change.
  •  
    The graphics in this article made it interesting and informative. The statistics on the increase in carbon dioxide levels since 1950 is astonishing. Discussions on global warming causes and remediation are necessary.
  •  
    In this article, the author explains the causes, effects and solutions to climate change in an interactive way. The website takes you to different diagrams so that you get a better understanding of the evidence.

We Don't Deny Harvey, So Why Deny Climate Change? - The New York Times - 3 views

  •  
    This article targets those who deny the existence of climate change, despite the fact that Texas is experiencing a hurricane. It explains the conditions needed in order for a hurricane to occur and relates them back to a rise in temperature over the years, which supports the realty that is climate change. The article discusses a fair amount of politics, suggesting a unity between parties in order to acknowledge and prepare for what nature has in store, as NASA had predicted a hurricane in Houston some time ago.
  •  
    This article is current and it really challenges the idea of climate change. It is scary to think that these hurricanes are going to get worse. It provides great points to how climate change is getting worse, and how it will continue to increase the amount of hurricanes.
  •  
    This article is very interesting. I can't help but think about how bad the other two hurricanes heading towards the U.S. and neighboring countries are going to be.

Donald Trump and the Triumph of Climate Denial - 1 views

  •  
    Our progress with climate change risk being overturned. A lot of people including our president don't believe in the science of global warming.

    I am so desperate and angry that I wish Mother Nature did something to wake those people up. Maybe a massive earthquake or tsunami will show them how bad of the current state our planet is in.
  •  
    How do you explain the duality of scientific evidence logically pertaining to the results of meta studies both proving and disproving climate change effects and signs?
  •  
    dal2124240, you don't when it pertains to our newly elected administration.
  •  
    Again I will ask how do you personally explain the duality of scientific evidence? The last time I check the currently elected administration is not taking English 102 or 101, sharing fact based articles or an attempt there unto pertaining. How do you personally defend your argument against the duality of scientific research; That in the last 30 years the atmosphere over the Antarctic has repaired itself over 150,000,000 square miles despite the increase of carbon emissions?
  •  
    http://climate.nasa.gov/evidence/. Here you go Dalton. Now, may I ask where you got your "evidence based fact" from, and do you have anymore from any reputable sources?

Is climate change real, and is the world actually getting warmer? - 2 views

  •  
    This article talks about the facts and myths in relation to global warming. It is proven that the earth is steadily getting hotter. It also talks about how some think we as humans are causing Our own demise and heading for the end and how some think there may eventually be a small group of survivors
  •  
    Arrhenius's theory being proven today is a very scary thing. It's inevitable that we will reach 1.5c tons, but how do we change our ways so drastically to stop is from reaching 2c tons? I propose we become aware of how much we consume and how what we consume is slowly taking its toll on our atmosphere.
  •  
    Great site and lots of good information on a huge topic in the political arena these days.

    I enjoyed reading this article because it was very informative. Not only did the article provide statistics in regards to how much water we need for our everyday food intake but it also allows the reader to understand how much money is put into making that food for us to eat. It focuses on the fact that switching to a vegan like or vegetarian diet worldwide would be significantly beneficial to our growing population.
  •  
    This article had interesting but scary statistics. Especially the statistic on how much water it takes to produce certain food items. I never realized just how much water society uses to function. In addition, humans are reaching the carrying capacity of the world far too fast. The author makes good suggestions for how to fix this issue. The solutions are not only answering the problem of a food shortage but also climate change.
  •  
    This was honestly eye opening seeing how much water is used everyday for even the most simplest of things. Reading about how much water it takes to produce food and how much of ends up being wasted in alarming. I recommend this article for anyone who has a topic that relates to this social issues at it provided in depth details on the matter. It's crazy knowing how much water we use daily without knowing how valuable it is, especially now.
  •  
    The article is so true about water scarcity being our demise, it will be such an catastrophe for the food crisis to strike especially in Arizona. The drought plays a huge part in supporting water scarcity, it dries out our lands and empties out the rivers. There are some good solutions to how to resist against climate change.

Post Paris Withdrawal: Respond with Political and Legal Action - Impact Fund - 1 views

  •  
    Paris has been through many difficult times and the time to help in never done. Trump has stated multiple times that the time helping is done. The time to help is still now and there needs to be more done.
  •  
    As the article states, withdrawing from the Paris Accord is a four year process. Hopefully the next election will see a new president and our membership will be re-instated.It was nice to read of coalitions forming to uphold the United State's vowed participation. Unfortunately, it seems that climate change has become "big" business in America and focus has been routed away from scientific facts.
