Though several questions from this list piqued my interest, I would like to focus on one in particular: How has the climate of the earth changed over time? This is from the category called "climate science".
This area of research has the potential to be fascinating, because I could learn about the grand scheme of earth's weather and climate patterns and compare them to today. The research could go in several different directions, as well. I think the science aspect of this is interesting. A search could shed some light on the other questions (like "Is it real?") by establishing some basic facts about the history of climate. I could learn (or at least guess) what might come next. This would all tie in, possibly, to some of the political perspectives on the matter.
The topic makes me wonder: how far back can scientists be certain of the climate? How do they know this? How different is it today? Why are there discrepancies concerning what people believe about climate change when we live in such a scientific, fact based society?
