Here's one of the best and most motivating article on climate change I've seen in a while. It states the case for global warming in very clear terms and proposes the idea that it only makes sense for those who have studies and understand climate change to act on it. The the author states that activist/scientist is not an oxymoron. I'm encourages to see that some of our finest climate scientists are are willing to put themselves out there and speak out on what they are seeing.

There are no simple solutions but we can all help by starting with the basic foundational acts of conservation: conserving energy, recycling and reusing even more and consuming less.

I read the book, Eaarth that you suggested that I read Brian and I cannot even understand how people can deny climate change, including people in my own family.0

Hey, glad to hear you got a chance to read it, lcusick. It is rather frustrating that some people just don't get it or want to get it.. The new Eaarth is, however, making these things known to us and the 97% of published scientists have only found global warming to be more verifiable, not less. And I'm seeing fewer people be as adamant about not believing in climate change/global warming. I just hope the increased awareness isn't too little, too late.lcusick said:I read the book, Eaarth that you suggested that I read Brian and I cannot even understand how people can deny climate change, including people in my own family.
