The weather is always changing, and its change is fast.
Climates also change, but their change is gradual.
A debate has been raging for many years, a debate known as Climate Change.
The fundamental question of the debate is whether or not humans are responsible for affecting climate change in a way that harms the earth and all living creatures on the Earth.
We are going to run a series of small group debates on the issue of climate change.
For this, you are going to be working in groups of 3.
As a group you will need to research and develop an argument for AND against climate change.
A helpful website you might like to use to develop your arguments is climatechange.procon.org.
