Physical Science assignment

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/heat/view/

Physical Science Class...please write a quality paragraph or two (whatever it takes to properly reflect on the prompt questions below). This is due Tuesday morning when you come into class.

Please reflect to this prompt: What is your opinion regarding how the U.S. should handle carbon dioxide emissions from cars and power plants? meaning, should we increase standards to clean up the air or leave things as they are? Keep in mind the following. If we increase the standards placed on cars and plants the cost of making those changes will be expensive, so we as consumers will have to pay more for fuel and electricity. If we don't raise standards we will continue to pollute the air and possibly cause irreversible damage to the environment.
