The Great
Compromise
Global Warming has been a very serious conversation over the
last decade, because it affects every person living on the planet
whether we choose to believe it or not. Most of the scientific
community claims that global warming is to blame for the changes in
Earths climate. However, there are a small number of scientists
who deny the very existence of
global
warming. Temperatures on earth have increased approximately
1.4°F since the early 20th century. Over time, atmospheric levels
of greenhouse gases such as
carbon
dioxide(CO2) and methane (CH4) have notably increased. Both
sides in the debate surrounding global
climate

In their
arguments, they point to the fact that climate has been known to
change periodically. Therefore, the current warming of Earth should
be seen only as another turn in the planets natural history. John
Coleman, who co-founded the Weather Channel, well known in the
meteorologist community insist the theory of man-made climate
change was no longer scientifically credible. Instead there is for
rising global temperatures points to a 'natural phenomenon' within
a developing eco-system. Although the planet has warmed 1-1.4°F, it
is within the +/- 5°F range of the past 3,000 years. A 2003 study
by researchers at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics
found that "many records reveal that the 20th century is probably
not the warmest nor a uniquely extreme climatic period of the last
millennium." A 2005 study published in Nature found that "high
temperatures - like those observed in the twentieth century before
1990 - occurred around AD 1000 to 1100" in the Northern Hemisphere.
A 2013 study published in Boreas found that summer temperatures
during the Roman Empire and Medieval periods were "consistently
higher" than temperatures during the 20th century. Per a 2010 study
in the Chinese Science Bulletin, the recent global warming period
of the 20th century is the result of a natural 21-year temperature
oscillation, and will give way to a "new cool period in
