Climate change is real science. We've studied it to death under the Bush administration and it's time to act. Even Bush appointees on IPCC agreed that climate change poses a real threat to our world. Climate change will cause mass extinctions, famine, severe weather changes, and possibility even war. Want to see Indian and China duke it out over water rights? Not a pretty picture since both countries have nukes, but it could happen if the glaciers in the Himalayas melts.
A recent CNN article pointed out this very real possibility.
Put pressure on the politicians to craft a real, workable climate change agreement at the Copenhagen Conference. Go to Blog Action Day 2009 and add your voice!

- Darn! Won a trip to the Rich Web Experience, but can't accept it. Against government rules :-( Thanks anyway to NFJS and Jay Zimmerman. #
