inspiring scientists‚ Barry insists that they have to “manipulate and even force experiments to yield and answer.” Without the ability to work with uncertainty‚ no work done will be enough to illuminate the subject. Through juxtaposition uncertainty and certainty in this professional field‚ Barry showcases the classifications of scientists with analogies and metaphors in a catalogue form. Barry begins by promptly identifying the counter argument; how uncertainty is a weakness for a scientist. He dismisses

Study of Climate Change In the 19th century‚ scientists realized that gases in the atmosphere caused a "greenhouse effect" which affected the planet’s temperature. These scientists were interested in the possibility that a lower level of carbon dioxide gas might explain the ice ages of the distant past. At the turn of the century‚ Svante Arrhenius calculated that the emissions from human industry might someday bring a global warming. Other scientists dismissed his idea as faulty. The History of
