The Climate Crisis

It's a pressing problem, more so every day, as people begin to feel the consequences and effects of human actions and impact on the environment. The climate is one such environmental topic which is beginning to show noticeable signs of human interaction. Here's a plug for the Climate Crisis Coalition, which is one of a multitude of groups working on this critical issue.

From their website
THE CLIMATE CRISIS COALITION

Climate change isn't just another issue in this complicated world of proliferating issues. It's the issue that unchecked will swamp all others. Unfortunately, the urgency of the climate crisis is overwhelmed by competition from other major problems.

We have been attacked by terrorists. We are disturbed by the ongoing crisis in Iraq. Our trick-or-treat economy is as unnerving to investors as it is cruel to workers. These diverse challenges may be susceptible to a common solution -a rapid worldwide transition to clean energy.

This is a call to peace and justice, business, labor, environmental justice, student, women's, religious, academic, scientific, political, minority and cultural communities to begin working together to advance this clean energy revolution and build a new campaign.
