The New Zealand-based founder of world renowned ideas, literature and criticism website ‘Arts and Letters Daily’ has found a creative solution to his frustration over trying to reconcile the many wildly opposed claims surrounding global warming.
Dennis Dutton’s answer was to start a new website called ‘Climate Debate Daily’ which focuses exclusively on climate change related comment and essays.
The format is very familiar to regular Arts and Letters Daily visitors. The left hand panel is labelled ‘Calls to Action’ and contains essays and research supporting the idea that global warming poses a clear threat to humanity, that it is largely caused by human activity, and that the solutions to the problems of climate change lie within human reach.
The right hand panel labelled ‘Dissenting Voices’ is a range of essays and research challenging the view that the world warming that began around 1880 is caused by human activity, that it poses a serious threat, or that the vagaries of earth’s climate are within human control.
The Times of London has named Climate Debate Daily as one of the five top eco-news sites on the internet.
Global warming or global paranoia? Take your pick.
