I PLEDGE:

1.To demand that my country join an international treaty within the next 2 years that cuts global warming pollution by 90% in developed countries and by more than half worldwide in time for the next generation to inherit a healthy earth;

2.To take personal action to help solve the climate crisis by reducing my own CO2 pollution as much as I can and offsetting the rest to become “carbon neutral;”

3.To fight for a moratorium on the construction of any new generating facility that burns coal without the capacity to safely trap and store the CO2;

4.To work for a dramatic increase in the energy efficiency of my home, workplace, school, place of worship, and means of transportation;

5.To fight for laws and policies that expand the use of renewable energy sources and reduce dependence on oil and coal;

6.To plant new trees and to join with others in preserving and protecting forests; and,

7.To buy from businesses and support leaders who share my commitment to solving the climate crisis and building a sustainable, just, and prosperous world for the 21st century.

Be part of the solution here.

LET’S COME TOGETHER FOR MOTHER EARTH HERE.

Join the global movement and take action against the climate crisis!

Make a commitment here!

Okay, this may sound like just another of those unscrupulous and deluding attempts to appeal to our fears, especially of such dangerous catastrophe, just to win us over a certain side or stance, but this article written by Andrea Thompson of LiveScience does make a lot of sense.

Also, a timeline that paints the big picture and details Earth’s frightening future which is “based on several recent studies and the longer scientific version of the IPCC report, which was made available to LiveScience.”

Meantime, also from LiveScience, here are 10 surprising results of Global Warming that ARE ALREADY HAPPENING.

Let’s be enlightened and forewarned.

I welcome you to my new blog.  This one is inspired by the efforts of many people around the world to raise awareness and seek solutions to the crisis of climate change.  I wish to be part of the solution rather than of the problem, thus the creation of this blog.  However, this is not the end of my humble contribution.  In the coming days and posts, I will share my own efforts and actions as I answer the call to heal our world.

Meantime, here’s link to the Live Earth Concert Series taking place on 7/7/07 that will bring together more than 100 music artists and 2 billion people to trigger a global movement to solve the climate crisis.

Let’s act – before it’s too late!
