Global climate change and planetary
warming are real and dangerous.
The folks who choose to disbelieve
are going to sweat just as much as the rest of us.
Mayor Bloomberg in New York City
just rolled out a $20 billion plan to "prepare for the impacts of a
changing climate," and that's just for starters:
“By mid-century, up to a quarter of all New York City’s
land area, where 800,000 residents live today, will be in the flood plain,” he
said, and “40 miles of our waterfront could see flooding on a regular basis
just during normal high tides.” We no longer have the luxury of ideological
debate, he said. “The bottom line is we can’t run the risk.”
Folks, we're cooking the planet.
The entirety of believable science says
so.
It's the only planet our
grandchildren are going to have to live on.
We need to do more, now, to mediate
the worsening effects of global climate change.
