Specialization is for Insects.
Folks, I’ve been saying that if you haven’t already, you NEED to see An Inconvenient Truth. If it doesn’t change the way you look at the world, then you probably have no heart. (Grin!) I also previously reported that Gore had been Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize. This is not just because he made a [...]
In line with the environmental topics of earlier in the week, I came across this interesting little cartoon that addresses the issue of “action and reaction” when it comes to our personal habits. The film does a good job of demonstrating how everything is interrelated while also delivering hope for the future. Enjoy…
I came across this great little video called “A Beginner’s Guide to Giving a Damn About Climate Change”. I think it was somehow associated with the Live Earth event. Anyway, the premise of the video is things you can do without actually changing the way you live your life. Despite the use of the word [...]
I think by now everyone knows what side of the environmental debate I’m on. And I’m aware that I have friends and relatives that still have differing opinions on the matter. When we discuss it I normally argue that the consequences of being wrong about global warming are potentially far, far worse than the cost [...]
In case you happen to care about Global Warming as an issue in the next Presidential election (in like 20 years…) there is a complete chart of every candidates positions over at The League of Conservation Voters. There is also a PDF version you can download.
There is a great list of practical things that each of us can do to actually slow down or reverse the damage being done to our little planet over at GlobalWarming-Facts.info. I’ve shortend the list a bit here, but you can always use the link above to get the original.
If you’re interested in contributing to the effort to fight Global Warming, now is the time to actually do something. On March 21st Al Gore will be testifying before congress about the topic and he has almost 300,000 digital signatures he’s taking with him. You can add your name to the list in about 30 [...]
Will Ferrell spoofs George W. Bush on a TBS special in support of StopGlobalWarming.org. As usual Will Ferrell had me laughing out loud a couple of times. My favorite quote: “Global warming is an issue my administration is very concerned about. Deeply. Deeply, in a deep kind of concerned way. I start my day and [...]
From the American Society for Microbiology… You know how we’ve been hearing for years that a huge impact probably wiped out the dinosaurs? Well, now it seems there is evidence to suggest that those silly scientists were off by a few hundred thousand years! Gerta Keller of Princeton University claims that it was more likely [...]
Al Gore Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize
Folks, I keep saying it… You need to see An Inconvenient Truth. As more proof, Al Gore was just nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. So, come on, what’s it going to take? :-)
The fight for the global climate is a fight for peace, say members of parliament Børge Brende and Heidi Sørensen,...
An Inconvenient Truth
Today I went to see Al Gore’s movie, An Inconvenient Truth. I didn’t really know what to expect, but I had heard a lot of positive buzz about the film and the IMDB rating is 8.2, which is off the chart.
The movie is a documentary and is more like sitting through a PowerPoint presentation...
IPCC Report: Global Warming Consequences
On Feb 2, 2007 the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), a group established by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), is expected to release a new report entitled, “Climate Change 2007″.
According to UK newspaper The Observer, which claims to have received a draft copy of the report, we...
