Climate Change
I was recently initiated as an Earth Keeper by the Q’ero shamans of Peru, an honor and responsibility that I don’t take lightly. These wise men have come down from their mountain to share their knowledge and prophesies with us. It is a time of great urgency when we need to make our beloved Mother Earth our top priority. She is sick and crying for our help.
Some researchers look at surface temperatures, some at ice cores, some tree rings and more recently satellite measurements of the larger atmosphere. What do the different collection techniques reveal?
Coral reefs, often referred to as “rainforests of the sea” simply “haven’t been able to adapt to the higher base temperatures of the ocean,” say the scientists.
Companies are actively doing their part to reduce their impact on climate change. What do you think about this?
Tangentially, there is a clear link between poverty and who climate change impacts first and worst—and women make up the greatest percentage of the worlds poor.
Clearly we need a global reordering of priorities, away from short-term economic gain and towards long-term sustainability.
Wednesday, September 9, was the hottest day of the year in Los Angeles. The air conditioning stopped working in classrooms across the city, stifling students with sometimes 90-degree temperatures inside and sending some to the hospital.
The independent work by both NASA and Japan Meteorological Agency show that July 2015 was the warmest month on record, and the chances are good – especially because of the strong El Niño – that 2015 as a whole will end up being the hottest year on record too.
Patrick Roddie, a geoengineering activist, just testified before Congress delivering a powerful message about how those concerned with global warming are woefully off-point to ignore the effects of persistent contrails (a/k/a chemtrails) on our environment and our health.
The complaint asserts that, in causing climate change, the federal government has violated the youngest generation’s constitutional rights to life, liberty, property and has failed to protect essential public trust resources.
Alexis speaks with George Barnes, director of the award winning film Look Up about action steps we can take to address the issue of geo/climate engineering It was February of 2014 when Alexis first sat down with commercial photographer and film maker George Barnes to discuss the issue of geo-engineering and its potentially grave impact on billions […]
Abnormally warm ocean temperatures are creating conditions that threaten to kill coral in the equatorial Pacific, north Pacific and western Atlantic oceans, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said on Monday.
Our planet is just 15 years from a new ‘mini ice age’ that could cause extremely cold winters characterized by the freezing of normally ice-free rivers as well as by year-round snow fields in areas that have never witnessed such climate conditions before, a group of astrophysicists claim. The scientists could draw such a conclusion based on a new model of the sun’s activity that reportedly enables the researchers to make “extremely accurate predictions” of changes in solar activity.
After years of disappointment in their government’s environmental policies, 886 Dutch citizens, following the lead of the sustainability foundation Urgenda, took their government to court in order to demand a better treatment of the environment and to lower carbon emissions.
