Please do a part to help me stop Global Climate Change.

About Me

This site is initiated to bring people together to spread awareness of facts and actions to stop Global Warming. Your option to be a part of this cooperative movement is as easy as clicking the "Add to friends" button. Know there's nothing you 'have to do.' Everyone decides his/her level of involvement. Regardless of political differences, or position about environmental movements - understand lack of awareness of facts and preventive action is risky. Together, we collectively share responsibility for this problem. Each of us doing a part can stop it.
Three-quarters of all Americans accept that global warming is real, but only one-third believes that it requires immediate attention and action. 1 Know that your presense and choices make a difference. Together, we can assure continued abundance of life on this planet. Let's do it.
The ads below mark a watershed moment in the effort to stir the public’s consciousness about global warming.
WISH TO BE INFORMED OF FACTS? One of the most well founded cases for debunking myths about this phenomena is presented in Al Gore's movie, "An Inconvenient Truth" .
NOT SURE IF YOU'RE CONTRIBUTIN' TO IT? Find out here .
WHAT YOU CAN DO: One or more of the recommended solutions .
CONTRIBUTE A STORY. Found your own way to stop global warming? Give it a shot, then send me an email about how it went. I'll post the best, funniest, and most innovative ones on the blog - and credit you with your name (if you want to share it). Here, we can share collective knowledge of affordable, do-able changes.
