Abstract

Global scenarios for global warming are the subject of worldwide debate, but there is no consensus among polls, and there are two biases: while one of them presents the cause of global warming as anthropogenic (man-made), the other highlights a natural variability of the climate system. Thus, the objective of this study is making an analysis of the studies related to the proposed theme in the face of the biases of global warming in divergent strategic scenarios. As a methodology, content analysis was used, with a review of the literature of the studies carried out on the subject in question with a descriptive analysis. The findings of this study show two main biases in the face of global warming, which are the anthropogenic view and the view that the factor occurs due to natural causes. Concluded that there is no consensus among scientists about the causes of global warming, but the most cited sources point to the view of IPCC, which claims to be an anthropogenic factor. The limitation of this research is due to the low number of publications found on the subject, especially on renowned bases and especially on sources that disagree with the IPCC.  Keywords: Global warming; Scientific Thought; Strategic Scenarios.
