In a 3-5 paragraph essay, discuss how the process of science has been used to develop and support a theory of global climate change. What is the accepted theory? Is there scientific consensus about climate change? What evidence exists to support the theory, and what are its limitations?
You may use any credible source to gather information about the theory of global climate change, its strengths, and limitations.
Your essay should be organized around a clear thesis statement that is supported by at least 3 pieces of scientific evidence. You must include introductory and concluding paragraphs, and address each component of the process of science, as described in this lesson. Use the attached rubric as a guide, and be sure that all information is written in your own words.
You may submit your essay in the text box provided, or upload it as a file. Be sure to review your work before you submit it. This is one of two graded assignments in this unit.
