Daily Kos: Climate Change SOS Blogathon: Romney's Illiteracy & Election Vulnerability

Bill McKibben, boatsie and I would love for you to join us next week for a blogathon at Daily Kos to raise public awareness of the climate change impacts happening NOW. Our August 20-24 blogathon will feature top U.S. and world climate scientists, lawmakers and political activists as well as our very special kossacks writing about climate change. Some blogathon participants will also write about the interrelationship of climate change with human rights, environmental justice, natural resources, civil rights, culture, economy, jobs, food security, health care, etc., to provide a realistic picture of the so-called "external costs" of climate change impacts that also affect our lives.

For years, the right-wingers and teabaggers have convinced many Americans that climate change is a myth or, if it does happen, it will be decades down the road, so why worry about it now.
