There is a lib-guide in the library resources, containing a partial list of resources, such as the New York Times, Scientific American, National Geographic, and more. In addition, there are numerous books, and journals dealing with climate change. Some books will present overwhelming evidence for the human contribution to Global Warming while others will present a contrary view: either it doesn’t exist, or it is a natural cycle which isn’t affected by the anthropogenic contributions of the greenhouse gases. No matter which position you take, be prepared to back it up with good sources of information.
