History, Science, Jefferson and Global Warming
As the traditional school year draws to a close, we're still discovering that learning can take place all the time--even for grown-ups! It is so true what the Bible says--there is nothing new under the sun. Science, history, and debates on current events continually repeat themselves.
Fox news ran an unusual special on global warming this week. I'd like to share it with you. I thought I was fairly up on History (one of my favorite subjects--I read it just for fun!) However, I didn't know that Jefferson, in the time of the American Revolution, was something of a climatologist and meteorologist, and studied global warming until the end of his life. He left his notes, and I would imagine they make interesting reading.
Check out the article, about the global warming special, at http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,195877,00.html. It is enlightening to see both sides of scientific debates, and discuss them as a family. Let me know what you think!
