Mark Hertsgaard on the alleged threat of trace amounts of invisible, harmless, natural atmospheric gas: "at least we’ll know we didn’t stand idly by while the climate train came barreling down the track at our precious children"

Parents Need to Act Against Climate Change For Their Kids’ Sake - The Daily Beast

This dream belongs to a journalistic colleague who, like me, has covered the climate story long enough to understand the implacable science facing his child as our planet continues overheating. But after he shared it with me, it became my dream too. Except in my version, it was my 7-year-old daughter, Chiara, and I who were crossing the street, frozen in place, as the climate train bore down upon us.
... As a result, my Chiara and millions of other youth around the world are now fated to spend the rest of their lives coping with the hottest, most volatile climate in our civilization’s 10,000-year history. Think of them as Generation Hot.
...When Lisa Bennett, a writer in the Bay Area and the mother of two young boys, awoke to the dangers of climate change, she felt compelled to act. “I began to think it a bit crazy that I attended to every bump and scrape on my children’s little bodies and budding egos but largely ignored the threat likely to put sizable areas of the world … underwater in their lifetime,” she explained.
...
For now, we’re calling our group Climate Parents, because we believe that taking action on climate change has become part of every parent’s job description, just like providing proper food, clothing, and shelter.

Whether we will succeed, we cannot say. But at least we’ll know we didn’t stand idly by while the climate train came barreling down the track at our precious children.
