Greetings and thankyou to all 1465 of you who have signed and taken action on global warming
https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/...
This whitehouse petition to promote renewable energy (wind, solar, tidal, geothermal...) and to have us stop using fossil fuels within 40 years needs your additional help.
Needs to have a total of 25000 signatures by Feb 5th to make it a worthwhile effort and have the POTUS at least comment on this, the most important problem we face.
What we need is to have everyone promote this petition - send it to your friends, put it on facebook, tell people about it anyway you can.
You know that it's important
Thanks
Barry Allen
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

Please sign and promote the petition
We need to do this to give our children a chance
Thanks
