So first some interesting articles:
- Scientists talk about shooting sulfur dioxide into the air to curb global warming:
- It's okay to be a capatilist and be green:
- River species to decline by 12-25% over the next 50 years:
- And my personal favorite: Global Warming could shorten the length of an earth day (think about it):
Now back to the journey. So far I've discovered there is a lot of passion about global warming and only one shared vision; that it is occurring. Why it occurs - better not go there. How to solve it - again, lots of opinions. So how do I contribute?
I looked at StopGlobalWarming.org. Seems logical and easy, (so very easy), but something doesn't sit right about this group. They say they aren't political, but have a lot of political backing . They also don't appear to be non profit, in fact they appear to be a spin site of the Tides Center, a for profit company whose business is to sell social innovation. I'm not saying they are doing the wrong thing, but there isn't a way to measure their impact. Also, just the home page alone is trying to sell you cars and books and Microsoft, wow. It looks like this is how big business does global warming.
I wanted to stay with the non-profit organizations. In the suggestion given by one of the developers of JitterBook, "keep the blog entries short", I'll leave this entry at this: I next headed to "Charity Navigator" for my next step.
