I realize that everyone – that includes YOU – is busy.  And I know you’re REALLY BUSY – making money, maintaining your home, helping your kids and parents.  I get it.  What I don’t get is that my very intelligent, socially correct, politically active friends and family AREN’T LISTENING to the most important message about …

What’s the fuss about?  Logan Conover, the founder of WHEN, NOT IF…, sums it up with his description about the Positive Feedback Loop.  If this doesn’t scare the bejeezus out of you, I don’t think you’re listening.  Leave it to a 17-year-old student to lay out the facts.  Remember, DON’T DRIVE YOUR CAR TOMORROW – SATURDAY, …

So you’re a climate change believer but feel overwhelmed by the enormity of the problem.  And what’s worse? You feel like driving your little Honda Civic, or NOT driving it, won’t impact climate change, right? WRONG! With one billion internal combustion engine (ICE) cars on the road worldwide, our transportation systems are responsible for about …

Claim to be a Climate-Change Believer? Prove it!  Don’t drive your car on Saturday, April 23rd! Back in October 2015 when Logan Conover (my 17-years-old client) learned that there was 398 ppm of CO2 in the atmosphere, he was shocked.  Then, when we checked CO2 levels last week and found that we reached 404 ppm in …

Every day I hear more evidence about our planet warming up and that it is caused by us – humans.  NASA scientists are concerned about a growing crack in the Nansen Ice Shelf that may break off and create a massive iceberg the size of Manhattan. Over the past 2 years, this small crack has …

Everyone (who is paying attention) knows that Greenland, Canada, Alaska, and Antarctica are losing a lot of ice. According to NASA and Princeton University’s Harig and Simons, they are losing 387 billion tons of ice/glaciers per year. I need to say this again: 387 billion tons of ice per year!  And that’s not the worst part.  Antarctic glaciers …

I love this!  Finally, 21 kids may have the opportunity to force the government to stop the devastation that Climate Change has and will continue to wreak on earth. It’s about time! Dr. James Hansen, an adjunct professor at Columbia University and former director of NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies is the guardian of “future generations” …

Did you know that our congressional representatives are NOT representing us on Climate Change? I’m confused. I thought our congressional representatives were supposed to “represent” our beliefs when they vote on initiatives that impact us.  If 76% of Americans believe that climate change is caused by man, then why is it that only 41% of …

I just read a disturbing quote from the Boston Globe: “Thursday, while the nation debated the relative size of Republican genitalia, something truly awful happened. Across the northern hemisphere, the temperature, if only for a few hours, apparently crossed a line: it was more than two degrees Celsius above “normal” for the first time in recorded …

I feel sickened by this news. Australia’s federally-funded research agency, similar to our NASA in the United States, has cut 110 of 140 positions that handle atmosphere and oceans, and another 120 positions will be cut from the land and water program. I’m in shock! Australia is GROUND ZERO for climate change! With these climate …

Oil and natural gas companies are secretly drilling oil and gas wells using a technique called hydraulic fracturing or fracking. Each well requires approximately one million gallons of water that ismixed with chemicals that are toxic and carcinogenic.  There are thousands of these wells in the United States and the oil companies keep drilling more and more. …
