On CNN and other news networks, guests often express their opinions in rather strong, persuasive, and sometimes frightening terms. For example, a scientist who strongly believes that global warming is taking place will warn us of the dire consequences (such as rising sea levels, coastal flooding, and global climate change) she foresees if we do not take her arguments seriously.
If the scientist is correct, and the world does not take her seriously, would this be a Type I error or a Type II error? Briefly explain your reasoning.
