Climate change is a big concept. There is clear data that the climate is changing at a rapid rate and that the changes are getting to dangerous levels. But who among us can discuss ozone, CO2, methane, and other related science topics? Add to that the need to utilize averages, statistics, trends and a host of other mathematical constructs. Let's toss in the computer power needed to crunch those numbers - the brains and computers at NCAR (National Center for Atmospheric Research) are humming away working on these problems. So, let's just ignore all of this for a moment. Let's bring it down to a mere mortal's level. While we might not be able to predict the weather and calculate the changes that climate change is having on our planet, we are all qualified to discuss the need for clean water and clean air. We need these things to survive and there are serious threats to their existence. Call a friend in Detroit if you want to know what it is like to not have clean water. We need to ensure that this planet will support the human race and to do that we need to ensure a ongoing supply of clean water and clean air. Let's do our part to support the planet for generations in the future and demand that clean water and clean air be protected. The mid-terms are coming up - vote for the candidates most likely to support clean water and clean air.
