Global Warming

Kluger's and Lindzen's essays make opposite arguments about the effects of global warming. Kluger is of the persuasion that global warming is the cause for such disasters as stronger hurricanes or melting polar ice caps. Lindzen feels that global warming is a natural process that we should not be alarmed about. Also, Lindzen states that global warming is actually creating less tropical storms. The one common ground the two arguments have is referring to CO2. Kluger proposes that the sharply rising levels in our atmosphere are trapping heat and causing more severe natural disasters. Lindzen argues that these rising CO2 levels are actually causing less tropical storms and such. I found Kluger's article much more convincing. He employed many more statistical proofs of his view point than Lindzen.
