Greenland Is Turning Green

Something when you hear it from the horses mouth things become a little more clear. These fellow Greenlanders have been witnessing the accelerating effects of climate change and how it is altering the landscape in Greenland dramatically. New studies have found that Greenland is melting much faster than previously thought and as this video shows the effects are quite obvious...

Action Need To Be Taken Now For The Sake Of Our Children

"Treat the earth well: it was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children"



"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world; indeed it is the only thing that ever has"

Please do your part...

Blog Action Day Arrives

Just in case you haven't heard yet, today is Blog Action Day. This day was designed to spread the word about climate change and it's devastating effects. If you would like to participate click here to visit their website.

If you have been following this blog you know that there is already overwhelming evidence that climate change is being caused by humans, yet no real action is taken here in the states on a federal level. I only hope that our next president will have a little more going on upstairs instead of change jiggling in his pocket from his oil company kickbacks...

With more and more people getting behind this movement maybe we can actually make a change before George W. Bush is out of office, but the way our government moves like a snail I kinda doubt anything will be done... sad really, but who know maybe I will be pleasantly surprised and our planet won't be doomed, but as more and more time passes I fear we have already passed the tipping point.

Climate Change In Australia

As you are about the see the effects of climate change are already being felt to a large degree in Australia. In fact this years mean temperature is the highest ever recorded! These droughts will cause increased risk of wildfires and will cause major problems for farmers in Australia...



It is videos like this that are very disturbing to watch... it seems like just last year all we were hearing about here in the states was all the coming effects of climate change and the horrible things that could happen down the road. Well guess what these things are already happening and if major action isn't taken soon things are only going to get worse...

The Effects Of Climate Change In Siberia

This video from Russia Today discusses some of the effect that are already being felt in Siberia. As some of you might know the permafrost that is under the ground in places like Siberia is actually melting! Unfortunately this will act as a snowball effect, as the permafrost melts, not only is it destabilizing all the land around it, it is also releasing methane and other greenhouse gases that have been trapped in the ground.
