Fruits and Global warming

In this post I will come up with a the knowledge claim (based on Mr Moussay's grandfather's opinion), topic, poor knowledge question, intermediate knowledge question and a good knowledge question i.e the ladder of abstraction.

knowledge claim: fruits are ripening faster because of global warming
topic: belief, science, imagination, empirical knowledge
poor KQ: how can the changes in nature signify the existence of global warming? 
Intermediate KQ: can a person's beliefs be used to support scientific facts? 
Good KQ: to what extent can empirical knowledge be used to justify a scientific fact?
