Stark before-and-after evidence of how cast polymer has changed since the 1990s: the nrxt photo (below) shows a custom bathtub and shower made with white cultured marble, now known as engineered composite. The âafterâ photo (pictured here) is a granite-look engineered composite remake, called Venetian Gold, produced by Mobile Marble (Mobile, Ala.).
While polls of scientists actively working in the filed of climate science indicate strong general agreement that Earth is warming and human activity is a significant factor, 31,000 scientists say there is no convincing evidence that humans can or will cause catastrophic heating of the atmosphere.
In 2014, the vast majority (87 percent) of scientists said that human activity is driving global warming, and yet only half the American public ascribed to that view. And 77 percent of scientists said climate change is a very serious problem. In comparison, only 33 percent of the general public said it was a very serious problem in a 2013 poll. That a split exists is common knowledge among social scientists who puzzle over the gridlock on climate change in the United States.
