Will we ever wake up on Climate Change?

My opinion: The Brookings article below is a classic example showing that we just don’t get it on Climate Change.  It is serious, devastatingly so.  Yet we continue to discuss minimal changes and debate the corresponding financial consequences like it is some under graduate research project.  It is like “having a meeting on the Titanic to discuss how best to arrange the deck chairs in order to keep the ship afloat”.  WE NEED TO WAKE UP AND MOVE TO RENEWABLE ENERGY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND STOP TALKING ABOUT CLEAN COAL, NATURAL GAS AND OTHER MYTHS OF THE CARBON INDUSTRIES. http://www.brookings.edu/blogs/planetpolicy/posts/2014/08/12-pricing-carbon-frank?utm_campaign=Brookings+Brief&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=13808773&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-8pRrXQi2ac2P83dzRl_GYIDehEUPEWUQSjuBmyQUUOR97EbwL6Ce5GNmJbz-WsPwnGBm0A1HoKIQub9tD7taVJmRLvww&_hsmi=13808773

 

Fight for a bold climate treaty – this may be the biggest climate march ever.

Sign the petition: In September, heads of state will be in New York City for a historic United Nations summit on climate change.** This is our opportunity to change America’s climate future, and use the media fallout to change the world.  This petition will tell President Obama, his U.N. ambassador Samantha Power, and other world leaders to fight for a bold climate treaty. We’ll hand deliver your name at the People’s Climate March right before the U.N. meetings. https://secure3.convio.net/engage/site/Advocacy;jsessionid=8F2EB52B44F9D93D6194CFA920CF578E.app322b?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=11743
