Global warming is a reality for many people now, but sometimes with problems that are this large scale, it’s difficult to decide how to proceed in order to create change. Laurie David is one of the leading activists for global warming and in her book, she gives students (and adults) some insight on the issue, the facts, and what you can do to help.
Would you be able to rally behind the dung beetle as the face of endangered species? Highly unlikely. But you should. The dung beetle, other insects and many plants that are on the endangered species list (or didn't make the cut) could have a much more drastic effect if they were extinct than the poster child of the program, the polar bear.
When debating how to get the world behind the movement for global warming, environmentalists knew that the world wouldn't get behind Elkhorn Coral as their leading cause for activism. When debating how to keep the global warming activists from taking over the country, members of the Department of the Interior stalled their decisions.
After the Kyoto Conference (which the U.S. did not attend), one of the most proposed means to help stop global warming has been the cap and trade system. The U.S. has come up with two proposals that consist of this system: the Climate Stewardship Act and the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative. Is this the best first step for our country to stop the climate crisis?
Today, June 12th, is Carbon Belch Day. This day is an awareness event by counter-environmentalists whose goal is to debunk the global warming "myth" in order to, ironically, save the planet. Their goal is to unleash a torrent of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, completely on purpose.
I have been getting responses to my first Climate Crisis blog saying that they are yet to see evidence that global warming is around us. What ignorance!
Almost anyone who has been paying attention to the climate crisis and those who wish to do something about it have been hearing so much about the efforts of artists such as Willie Nelson, Dave Matthews and Jack Johnson in trying to reduce their carbon footprints.
