Arts & Letters Daily is one of my favorite websites. Edited by Denis Dutton, a professor of philosophy at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand, it brings together an eccentric selection of articles, book reviews, and essays from all across the Internet—from a meditation on creating fictional characters to an examination of the explosive growth of the Chinese and Indian economies.

Now Dutton and his colleague Douglas Campbell have started a new resource devoted exclusively to making sense of the science behind global warming. Climate Debate Daily links to scientific articles, news stories, economic studies, polemics, editorials, and more, and gives equal voice to dissenting views as it does to calls to action. The objective: “to allow readers to form their own judgments based on the best available information.”

A timely idea, indeed…
