Global Warming is controversial; there is one side that doesn't believe in global warming, and another that does. However, both sides do believe in climate change. There is significant evidence that there has been changes in the climate. How they are changing is a variety and how they are changing is up for a debate. In this article, Jacoby describes how it is global cooling at times and global warming at other times. He doesn't pick a side, but rather gives both sides reasons to contradict. The main example was the year 2008. That year had the coldest temperatures recorded around the world in the past decade. Snow had fallen where it hadn't fallen in 5 years, and some 20 years. This article also points out that people need to understand the Earth works as an organism and it is forever changing and evolving. Once scientists begin to understand the complexity of planet earth, it changes.
