There are two Whitehouse petitions on climate change that deserve your attention.
It should be a priority for us to get these petitions signed by 150 people so that they can both be seen by everyone, launching them on their way to the 25,000 signatures needed to have POTUS say something. Open discussion of our problem is needed. You aren't getting that from the MSM
Both petitions are more than 80% of the way to the public launch point
- your help is urgently needed
Take a short break from what you are doing and help us with this.
2012 was the hottest year ever.....
You are already seeing the changes
- the unusually warm summers and winters
- Primroses blooming in Pensylvania in January
- the ever more violent powerful storms - Sandy flooded NYC
- the vast dying of pine trees in the Rockies
- the drought in Texas
- Australia on fire
The danger is very real
- Canada is intent on completion of the XL pipeline to export their dirty oil
- US coal barrons are intent on sending vast quantities of coal to China to further foul their skies
Climate change is an espress train racing towards us.
We cannot step off the tracks
All we can do is slow the train a little and hope the collision is lessened
We are running out of time to avoid the worst effects of climate change.
Ocean acidification is real...
The coral reefs are dying
Continued release of CO2 will activate irreversible positive feedback loops
- release of methane from permafrost thaw
- release of methane trapped in coastal waters as they warm
Once initiated we will not be able to stop them....
.....the topical rainforests and their incredible biodiversity will burn
........(Look again at the photos from Australia.)
.....the ice in Greenland and in Antarctica will melt.... ocean waters will rise..
.....NYC, Florida, Bangladesh, the Netherlands and many more will be flooded
.... forever
We need to deploy renewable energy sources as a national emergency priority
- solar, wind, tidal, geothermal..
We need to phase out our use of carbon based fuels ASAP
- Seal the Tar Sands, Keep the coal in the ground
Already over 10,000 people have signed up to be in Washington on February 17th to demand that President Obama move our country forward and reject Keystone XL?
See below the orange spiral for details
