1. Dr H gave a quick review of the Ozone Key Concepts "bullet" points and the "Things to Know and Ponder about the Ozone Issue" on p 127 in Class Notes.

2. Dr H then talked about a news item in today's Arizona Daily Star about the upcoming Supreme Court Case about carbon emissions.

3. The class then watched "Ode to Kyoto" a segment of the PBS show NOW that aired January 23, 2004. You can watch the NOW program video clip on your own and read about the HISTORY OF GLOBAL WARMING & GLOBAL WARMING IN THE PUBLIC EYE at the following link:

http://www.pbs.org/now/science/climatechange.html#

Scroll down through Global Warming in the Public Eye: A Timeline to the year 2002 and click on WATCH THE VIDEO after you see the words "Ode to Kyoto" (which links to a transcript of the video if you want to read it along with, or instead of the video.)

This site also contains very useful info for your I-6 Debate Preparation assignment!

4. Lastly Dr H shared some special features of the newly released An Inconvenient Truth DVD:

(You can write about the video for a Thinking Deeply if you like)
-- and we watched a few "Special Feature" segments from the DVD in which Gore updates some recent scientific findings since the movie was filmed (these segments are not available online, but you can rent or get the video yourself to watch them on your own.)
