| Collection Name: | DLESE: Digital Library for Earth System Education
|
|---|
| Collection Description: | DLESE's mission is to improve the quality, quantity, and efficiency of teaching and learning about the Earth System, by developing, managing, and providing access to high-quality educational resources and supporting services through a community-based, distributed digital library. Intended users include students, educators and citizens of all ages, in both formal and informal learning environments. The collection favors resources that convey linkages and connections; the general with the specific, theory with evidence, global with local, and that demonstrate the application of science to solving real world problems. This includes providing access to Earth data sets and imagery, and the tools and interfaces that enable their effective use. DLESE resources are community-contributed, by individuals, organizations, and formal collection efforts. |

| Resource Title: | The Global Warming Debate
|
|---|
| Description: | This overview of a late 1998 public debate over the reality of global warming includes a complete PDF copy of the evidence presented during the debate by GISS director Dr. James Hansen. This page covers the basics of using science to persuade an audience with statistics and graphs, as well as key points in the debate over global warming. Climate sensitivity, model calculations, water vapor feedback, carbon dioxide, and planetary disequilibrium are discussed in terms of the causes of global warming, and whether or not it is a serious threat. |
