While he said that scientists do not yet have all the answers, he suggested that the increase in CO2 in the atmosphere in recent decades could have dire consequences on the global environment, such as warmer weather, which would lead to more virulent hurricanes. Schrag’s research has shown that human survival could come into question as unstable and unpredictable weather conditions plague the planet. But Schrag’s findings are not without controversy. Some scientists, such as Willie Soon, an astronomer at the Harvard...

It was the second Friday of April (oh, how long ago it seems). The weather was warming and the smell of blooming flowers and fresh-cut grass was in the air. I had just woken up in my first-floor room in Stoughton Hall, which faced out onto the Yard. Yawning, I groped my way in the darkness to my window, to open up the blinds and greet...
