They are composed of  peer elected scientists, and they have done work and found evidence to back up their claims. They seem to really care about informing the people and furthering science. The least trustworthy organization was the Lavoisier Group. The group and their research was based purely on opinion as opposed to fact. Their aim was to create "vigorous debate", and they are motivated by power, making them untrustworthy.]]> 2017-09-15 17:42:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188044553 Hanna Popa https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188045278 The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is the most believable organization because it bases its assessments on the work of peer reviewed scientific literature and is focused mainly on climate change issues. The least believable organization is the Competitive Enterprise Institute, or CEI. This organization is non-profit, but has a website with weak points towards global warming that is only run by a couple people. It was also one of the first to jump against the idea of global warming and has fought other environmental acts such as the Endangered Species Act and protection laws.]]> 2017-09-15 17:44:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188045278 Claude Bordianu https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188047604 The Dept of Natural Resources and Environmental Control is the most believable because their goal is the most realistic out of all of the other organizations. The fact that its is run only in the state of Delaware which makes the location a lot more centralized and easy to work in. 
The least believable is the Competitive Enterprise Institute because it is run by many scientists which have their own biased opinions and this causes them to have a negative impact on their credibility.]]> 2017-09-15 17:50:41 UTC https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188047604 Valerie Newton https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188048255 The U.S. Senate Committee on the Environment and Public Works is the most trustworthy organization. It is run by a large group of credited scientists and has been trusted with many important laws and different aspects of environmental science and global preservation. The Union of Concerned Scientists is the least trustworthy organization because their mission statement does not have a clear goal or plan.]]> 2017-09-15 17:52:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188048255 Gabe Cranor https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188048348 The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is the most believable organization because they are dedicated to acquiring knowledge on climate change. This is a non-selfish motivator, and they are looking for the truth on climate change through a scientific lens. The National Center for Public Policy Research is the least believable organization because they seem to be motivated by selfish means. They are motivated by business and money. They don't seem to care about the repercussions of businesses on the environment. ]]> 2017-09-15 17:52:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188048348 Sadya Zaman https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188048992  
The most credible organization is  NASA National Aeronautics and Space Administration because they use the scientific method for all their investigations and the least credible organization is the Heritage Foundation because it is biased in the use of social media, picking and choosing drastic events/occurrences to support their cause.

The least believable is The Heritage Foundation, because they base their "facts" in opinions of how they view the world. ]]> 2017-09-15 17:54:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188049350 Sarah Hsu https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188050462 The Heritage Foundation seemed the least believable because many or their principles were based on historical American tradition rather than statistics. The most believable organization is NASA because they are a well known organization and have numerous reviews and facts to support their findings.]]> 2017-09-15 17:57:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188050462 Sebastiam Mejia https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188050476  The most credible organization is  American Association for the Advancement of Science. This is  because they want to provide benefits to everyone in the world with the use of science, engineering and innovation. This means us the people will be getting more benefits. The least credible  is  National Center for Public Policy Research because they claim that individual freedom and free market help out but yet they have environmental polices. Also they do not support there claims]]> 2017-09-15 17:57:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188050476 Tamia Jones https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188050535 I think the most credible source is the American Association for the Advancement of Science. This source is credible because it seems that they have a drive to better the world through science and technology. The least credible source is the Union of Concerned Scientists. This source did not seem to have an in-depth depiction of their purpose and action plan in order to better the world, and the name seems slightly amateur.

The Heritage Foundation seems to be the least believable because its bias credibility does not account for benefiting the environment. It bases its main focus on traditions that do not always seek wise use and conservation for life on Earth.]]> 2017-09-15 18:01:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188051912 Khushali Patel https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188175908 I think that the most credible source is NASA because they have evidence to prove their facts through many scientific instruments. They also review/interpret their data thoroughly before publishing. The least credible source is The Heritage Foundation because they seen bias when stating info, without using stat. They seem to follow, historical traditions which does help Earth Earth in the long run. ]]> 2017-09-16 20:42:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188175908 Quintin Frazier https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188292648 The Intergovernmental panel on climate change is most believable because Their organization is filled with trustworthy scientists and composed of statistics to back up their claims. They are focused on reasons beyond their personal benefits and are focused on just facts. The least credible is the national center for public policy research. Their evidence was had no stats to back it up and was very opinionated.]]> 2017-09-18 00:59:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/188292648 Katie Murphy https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/192972421 The most believable source is The National Academy of Sciences because they supply evidence and facts and are not biased. They are motivated by the truth. The least believable organization is The Heritage Foundation because it is driven by power and money. They want to benefit themselves, not the environment.]]> 2017-10-02 13:13:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jeannie_lanio/a453lgtv430k/wish/192972421
