Bollywood Star Gives South Asian-Canadians (& Government) a Climate Change Warning : TreeHugger
Termed the "Sean Penn of Asian Cinema" by Maxim magazine, Rahul Bose is taking his star power to his South Asian-Canadian community to get out the vote on climate change. Maybe they should call him the Al Gore of Asian Cinema instead.Why some people don't believe in global warming, as if it's a religion
Think about standing in the middle of a busy street, trying to cross, Hamburg continues. “Traffic is speeding past from both directions. The probability that you’ll fail to get across is high. That is what’s going to happen with climate change. We will be surrounded by disasters. The longer we wait, the fewer options we will have.”Northrop seeks teachers for climate [hoax] expeditions - The Daily Breeze
Browning describes how we will finally understand the need for action: "Each of us will have—or has had—a moment of epiphany about climate change, a moment of understanding the urgency of the problem. That moment comes in the garden, or on the banks of a once vibrant, trout-filled river that is now still or in depths of a forest that no longer echoes with the croaking of frogs. It comes because the droughts are more prolonged, year after year, or the storms more severe. Or because your grandfather tells you that what is now the low tide mark on your beach was, in his youth, the line of the highest tides—as is happening where I live [where, specifically, is this spot?]. Oceans have been rising, as have temperatures, and faster than expected. It does not require a leap of faith to “believe” this; it is a fact."

In order to sell the American people on this dangerous legislation, some supporters are playing up the national security angle. The official name for the Waxman-Markey cap and trade bill that narrowly passed the House is, “American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009.” The argument that hypothetical global warming is a national security threat is weak at best. The senate has decided to go for the “jobs” angle with their version.Opinion: Clean-tech investment flowing to California because of climate [swindle] policies
When California chose to be a first mover on climate change, it was with the understanding that our action would invite others to join us. And they have. Together we are creating the momentum toward a clean-energy future that will grow our economies, save our planet and create millions of new jobs.
