Everyone sick of the snow and rain? If you want to do your part to slow this trend, I recommend that you turn your vehicles engines off when they are parked. If everyone did this, it would eliminate more CO emissions than 2 coal power plants. If we don't have a grass-roots change of these behaviors the weather will just get worse and worse. It should be mandated that all personal vehicles be hybrids for instance. We have mucked with Mother Nature big time and she is letting us know.
By the time we have political will to stop this trend, the salmon runs will die out as will most other critical foods from the sea. The reefs are dying at an alarming rate and the small organisms are declining. Weather disasters will become daily news (they already are actually) and will prevent any world economy from being "normal". Growing regions will fail and crops will have to be relocated, like California. Next thing you know, we will be buying our produce from Canada.
If you believe that global warming cannot possibly be due to man because of all of the cold weather and snow in the east, you don't understand climate.
Okay, I'll get off my soap box now.
