Background Article Summaries:

One other article from ABC says that the supreme court ruling was a huge victory. The article is titled "Supreme Court Rejects Bush in Global Warming Debate." In the article many different groups, both political and environmental, put in their word on the decision of the supreme court. Groups like Greenpeace and the Sierra Club and the Clean Air act applauded the decision. "A well-documented rise in global temperatures has coincided with a significant increase in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Respected scientists believe the two trends are related," Justice Stevens wrote. The article showed that the general public agrees with the scientific evidence presented by the United Nations.

Another Article on the subject says that global warming is not having major affects on the environment, specifically the water level rise presented by advocate groups. The article is from the same site as the other article, FOX news, a well known conservative-oriented station. It uses the same references to heartland institute. The data collected by Nils-Axel Morner shows a sea level rise of 3 millimeters at the most since the beginning of climate change. He says that their is a big difference between theory and reality, and his data proves the EPA wrong.
