Global warming is happening. Global warming is caused by human beings. (Americans are far and away the largest contributors to the problem.) Global warming is on a truly global scale. The effects of global warming are terrifying.
The world, that's the place your children live, needs more American voters to be educated about the problems so that we can make sane decisions and avert the billions of deaths we are heading for.
So watch this episode of Nova and educate yourself.
Dimming the Sun talks about the conflicting effects of greenhouse gas trapping more of the suns heat and pollution particles reflecting more of the suns heat into space. It also talks about how burning fossil fuels is impacting the weather, the rain, and the Earth's temperature. Like An Inconvenient Truth, there is talk about projections of sea level and the impact that will have on cities. (I see high-water pants making a fashion comeback.)
As terrifying as this stuff is, it is real and it will not go away unless American's face the problem and act. So quite hiding and be a part of the solution.
