Global climate change debate portal - Debatepedia
This portal is dedicated to debates that relate to solving global climate change. While of use to the general public and decision-makers, this portal was created to assist debaters involved in The People Speak Global Debates between October 1st and 30th of 2008. The debate topic for the contest is: "The world should adopt our plan to significantly combat climate change". We encourage eligible high school students to sign up.
Below is a list of debate articles breaking down the pros and cons of the primary approaches to solving global warming.
A plan is likely to include some but not all of these approaches. The best plan would emphasize a mix of the below proposals that contains the greatest strengths and the fewest weaknesses. Your job is to analyze and compare the pros and cons of the below approaches and put together what you think is the best and most defensible mix of proposals. Keep in mind that this is not simply an exercise. The world does need to find a solution to global climate change. You can help.
