The world is warming, these facts are not disputed... The problem that we are going to run into is the "snowball effect". This is basically the idea that as the world warms it melts more snow... This snow used to reflect the heat from the sun, but now the much darker ground or water absorbs more of the suns heat... This increases global warming... More snow melt = faster warming... The same goes for melting permafrost. All of this permafrost that is melting contains methane gas which is a greenhouse gas just like carbon dioxide. As the world warms, it releases more and more trapped methane gas from the permafrost which only make global warming accelerate even more. More permafrost melt = More methane = faster warming. If we don't act quickly we will be past the point of no return, that is if we haven't passed it already...

It's So Cold, There Can't Be Global Warming!
This video really gives us a fresh update on just how serious the climate change situation has become. I am sure all the naysayers will still continue to pump their oil covered money into the argument, but hey that is never gonna change. Aren't there still people that think cigarettes don't kill you?

Dramatic Footage Of Climate Change
This video you are about to see shows just how bad glaciers all over the world are retreating. Now sure there still are some people out there that deny that climate change is happening or they just don't believe that humans could possible cause it, but let's face the facts and start to change before it is too late. The debate is long over the only ones still on the other side are the people being paid to do so or the ones that don't bother doing any real research on the subject...

Bush Hid Photos Of Glacier Melt... Not Surprising
Here are some newly declassified pictures that were unclassified by President Obama just a few days ago. President Bush deemed them unsuitable for public release for some strange reason... maybe it was that extra 20 that the oil companies slipped into his pocket? While it is refreshing to have a President that actually believes in science, I fear that the mess that Mr. Bush left us in has put climate change on the back burner...

The Age Of Stupid
Well at least we have a chance to change with the new administration in Washington... Hopefully the economic crisis doesn't get in the way of progress in the climate change arena. From the sounds of it the crisis could actually help us solve order energy and environmental crisis as well. Here is the trailer for a new movie coming out called The Age Of Stupid... Let's not end up like these guys...
