Warming Article - The most important fight of our lives Chey: So there was an article in the paper this morning that really caught my attention. I'm attaching the link here for all of you.
The article, in today's Toronto Star http://www.thestar.com/sciencetech/article/167344 may come across as a lot of doom and gloom to start 2007, but I do feel it’s important to read. The frustrating thing to note is that even though this article in The Star offers a lot of our “consequences”, they don’t offer solutions.
To counter-balance that is the new release of Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” is a terrific movie (in my opinion), now out on DVD that offers both the consequences of no action, with solutions and hope, that’s it’s not too late. There are things we can do to help. Little things that make a difference. http://www.climatecrisis.net/takeaction/whatyoucando/
Can we really afford NOT to do anything now? Can we afford NOT to vote in governments who are going to take our future seriously?

Re: Warming Article - The most important fight of our lives CDNgurl: Thanks for posting this Chey - My co-workers and I were discussing global warming this morning, as well as "An Inconvenient Truth".
I don't know how many years you've lived in Toronto, but the weather we are experiencing is alarming after having seen that film. No snow in the forecast for weeks...

Got it for Christmas, but I haven't had a chance to watch it yet. I've seen bits and pieces of it on tv though.
Re: Warming Article - The most important fight of our lives Chey: Hi CDN....I've actually been here since 88 so not TOO many, but enough to know that this weather is odd. I know I should appreciate the fact that it's January and I haven't yet brought out the proper winter jacket, but I just keep feeling like this is a consequence. I heard that they had similar weather to this about 30 years ago?
Alli...highly recommend it. It' weights pretty heavy, but at least it offers some great suggestions.

Reminds me of the whole El Nino debates... ::)
