Got Science? Take a global warming quiz to find out.

Written by Jack Hassard

On November 10, 2010

I received an email from the Union of Concerned Scientists today inviting me to get a free sticker “Got Science?” if I would take a pop quiz on global warming.  The quiz asks you to decide whether a series of statements are “False: Not Science” or “True: Got Science!”  After I took the quiz, and was informed that I indeed will receive a sticker, I received this in an email.

What do you know about global warming? Can you tell FACT from SCIENCE FICTION? Want a free “Got Science?” sticker?

Take the true or false quiz that pits your knowledge of global warming against public officials, media personalities, and political hacks. See if you can tell who’s “Got Science” versus who’s spreading propaganda that’s “Not Science” about global warming. http://www.gotsci.org/?rc=gotscitaf

Get a free “Got Science?” sticker — no matter how well you do on the quiz. I did!

It’s by the Union of Concerned Scientists and CREDO, so you know it’s the real deal. Check it out: http://www.gotsci.org/?rc=gotscitaf

Good luck on the quiz!

Particulate Matter: Some Observations

Particulate matter (PM) has become front and center because of the Canadian forest fires and wind patterns over the northeastern and middle Atlantic states. However, air quality alerts are as far south as Alabama and west to St. Louis. In this post, I use maps and images to provide information on how to understand air quality.

A Letter from A Teen Living in 2051 about Education and the Climate Crisis

This post focuses on education and climate as seen by a teen living in Atlanta in the year 2051.  I originally published it on April 21,  2012.  Although a work of fiction, it is presented here as a reminder of the consequences of making decisions based on faulty reasoning and ignorance.  I am re-publishing it today ahead of the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference being held in Glasgow, Scotland

Climate Change Threat

Climate Change Threat

The EPA released a climate report[4] in May 2021 that was hidden or delayed by the Trump administration. This was not surprising given the rebuke of science by Trump. The last time a climate report was released by the EPA was in 2016. The climate report, according to law, is published every four years. So, visiting the EPA climate change indicators page was refreshing. EPA scientists, who did the work three years earlier, finally had their work published and available to the American public. I recommend visiting this page which will provide you with interesting graphics and tools to give you an opportunity to learn how the indicators of climate change are analyzed and used to make predictions and foretell what we need to do to lessen the effect of climate change.
