Read the Case study, which is below, and answer the questions that will be provided below.

Case 1.4: Getting Warmer?
In 2012 sixteen notable scientists published an opinion piece claiming that there is \”no need to panic about global warming\” and \”there\’s no compelling scientific argument for drastic action to \’decarbonize\’ the world\’s economy\” (Allegre et al., 2012). This flew in the face of conventional wisdom and many scientific articles to the contrary (see Lavell, 2008; Farnsworth & Lichter, 2011; Oreskes, 2004). The sixteen scientists were widely representative academically (MIT, Princeton University, Cambridge University, and the University of Paris), professionally (American Physical Society, The National Academy of Engineering, The National Academy of Sciences, and the World Federation of Scientists), and globally (United States, Europe, The Middle East, and Australia). Since the mid-twentieth century there was growing public consensus of experts and nonexperts that anthropogenic (human-caused) climate change was real and dangerous. The American Physical Society had recently summed up the position thus: \”\’The evidence is incontrovertible: Global warming is occurring. If no mitigating actions are taken, significant disruptions in the Earth\’s physical and ecological systems, social systems, security, and human health are likely to occur. We must reduce emissions of greenhouse gases beginning now\” (Allegre et al., 2012). Allegre et al. (2012), including Roger Cohen, a fellow of the American Physical Society, deny that such evidence is incontrovertible and argue that the evidence suggests the contrary: The earth is not getting warmer and carbon dioxide, a major greenhouse gas, is not a pollutant. They suggest that a major reason for denying this is financial: \”alarmism over climate is of great benefit to many, providing government funding for academic research and a reason for government bureaucracies to grow. Alarmism also offers an excuse for governments to raise taxes, taxpayer-funded subsidies for businesses that understand how to work the political system, and a lure for big donations to charitable foundations promising to save the planet.\”
Moreover, Allegre et al. (2012) claim that it would make better economic sense to remove greenhouse gas controls, especially for \”the less-developed parts of the world that would like to share some of the same advantages of material well-being, health and life expectancy that the fully developed parts of the world enjoy now.\” While this might lead to increased carbon monoxide and \”modest warming,\” Allegre et al. (2012) believe this \”will be an overall benefit to the planet.\”

You must \”show\” not \”tell.\” For example instead of saying \”the firetruck is red\” you must say \”the firetruck\’s color resembled the shade of the last apple in autumn.\” The writing prompt must be at least 3 pages long. No sources needed. Just build on top of the topic sentence.

This excel spreadsheet is structured to allow you to enter data and calculations repetitively (as you would in a work setting) so to some extent it is a \”real world project.\” The questions are in the first tab and the assumptions are in the second tab. The spreadsheet for your answers is the third tab.

1) It is structured to allow you to enter data and calculations repetitively (as you would in a work setting) so to some extent it is a \”real world project.\” The questions are in the first tab and the assumptions are in the second tab. The spreadsheet for your answers is the third tab.

2) The assumptions tab lists the initial expense to be $10,000, but it should be $5,000 as input on \”Table A-B-C-G-H\” (so don\”t change it to $10,000).

Writing Assignment/Paper
Writing and writing well is a skill any culinarian should take seriously. There are/may be many times that you are asked to write and submit a proposal, business plan, summary, report, etc What you turn in or give out at a meeting is a reflection of you and you want to appear confident in both your verbal and written communications.
Below, I have given you the names of reputable Pastry Chefs. You are to write a paper using one of the Pastry Chefs provided or a Pastry Chef of your choosing. Some of the information you may want to include are: where they were born; what influenced them to become a Pastry Chef; did they have another profession earlier in their life; where did they train or attend school; what are they known for; awards they may hold, competitions they have won; their style of work; perhaps a picture or two of their work or the Pastry Chef him/her-self; your personal thoughts of their work or background, etc
I am not worried about the length of the paper as I will be looking at the content, spelling and punctuation, sentence structure and the information that you provide. APA is the format you will use. You may want to look at www.apastyle.org for guidance.
Please note that you are going to have to put some time and effort into this assignment and a one or two page paper is not going to offer me much.
Assignment is due week 9 at the beginning of class. If you have any questions or need assistance, I am available to help you. Point value for the writing assignment is 50 pts.
