Climate Change is the greatest threat to face humankind in all of history. There are actions that can be taken to alleviate the severe effects of this sudden change. Every one of these actions has the additional benefit of forcing us to reexamine our approach to the economy, health, foreign policy, and cultural identity. There are vested interests in our leadership and infrastructure that would have us delay a response to the evidence of climate change. But to ignore this growing threat is to betray future generations, to deny our children hope and stability. There may still be time, but we are running out of road.

"In this era of the internet and instant global communication, young people may be capable
of finding ways to galvanize stewardship for our planet that has so far been lacking."
James Hansen

“We need not fear for our planet. It was here before us and most likely will be here after us.
But that doesn’t mean that the human race is not at serious risk.”
VACLAV HAVEL

Pure Driving: The Revolutionary Compressed Air Vehicle

The Compressed Air Car developed by Motor Development International (MDI) Founder Guy Negre might be the best thing to have happened to the motor engine in years.

The $12,700 CityCAT, one of the planned Air Car models, can hit 68 mph and has a range of 125 miles. It will take only a few minutes for the CityCAT to refuel at gas stations equipped with custom air compressor units. MDI says it should cost only around $2 to fill the car up with 340 liters of air!

Why evangelicals are split on warming

Newt Ginggrich scolds liberals for their partisanship and hysteria before listing solutions to environmental problems found in every book already published on this subject. Still, if it gets the message to the conservative set, then bring it on. Emphasizing business, market and entrepreneurial solutions, there is something for the capitalist in you here.

IN WRITINGS....

I’ve never been an environmental activist. I’ve always assumed that rich people would not permit the conditions sustaining their wealth to be destroyed- that capital itself would intervene to prevent ecological disaster.
