Overview
Please review the TED talk by Stuart Firestein (The pursuit of ignorance). Then review the graph below (Average Daily Maximum Temperature for Jackson County, NC):[Image unavailable: Graphs displays the average daily maximum temperature from past decades and forecasting temperature for the future. Blue line represents a projection of lowered emissions, while the red lines represents higher emissions.]In a 1-2 page essay (upload a word or pdf file), discuss how Firestein suggests you should approach this data. Please submit a clearly delineated essay. I would like to see the following elements: 1) Introduction with a clear thesis statement 2) Review of Firestein's main points (What does the pursuit of ignorance mean?) 3) What can the temperature data for Jackson County tell us? What doesn't it tell us? How would Firestein recommend you answer these questions? 4) Where do we go from here? Note, please avoid using "opinion" and base your response on what is known and what questions we may ask.
