GENERAL INTEREST--SCIENCE: SPECIAL ISSUE -- GLOBAL WARMING DEBATE

Item #d93sep15

Research & Exploration, 9(2), Spring 1993. This scholarly publication of the National Geographic Society contains the following seven articles. All are well referenced and elegantly illustrated in the manner of the Society's monthly, National Geographic, making this issue a candidate for reference or classroom use. The articles by Lindzen, Balling and Michaels argue against the popular notion of climate change. In the last article, T.R. Karl uses the fundamental differences and similarities of the preceding papers to define what is known and what remains to be learned about the issue. He recommends research strategies for reducing uncertainties, as well as the need to use energy as efficiently as possible. (Single copies, $10 within the U.S. from Nat. Geog. Soc., 1600 M St. NW, Washington DC 20036; 202-857-7000.)
