Earth Focus: Tackling Climate Change

More at http://www.linktv.org/earthfocus
(Earth Focus: Episode 25) In this episode of Earth Focus, we look at various initiatives that are trying to take action to address climate change. Cool It! is a new movie featuring skeptical environmentalist author Bjorn Lomborg, who says people should cut the fear and find realistic solutions that make economic sense. Next, climate activists call for presidential leadership on during the World Work Party on 10/10/10. Then we look at Fate of the World, a new video game produced by UK based Red Redemption. They specialize in social action games that enable you to use real climate models to either save or destroy the world. Video game creator Gobion Rowlands explains why this game will have an impact. Another approach is taking the climate message to high schools as The Alliance for Climate Education makes climate science hip for teens, using animation, music, and video. Then author Chuck McCutcheon discusses his new book What are Global Warming and Climate Change?, explaining climate change for younger readers. In the next segment, Easy Like Water filmmaker Glenn Baker shows how children in Bangladesh are going to school on boats, due to rising sea levels and floods. Finally we look to rural Nicaragua, where solar energy is helping improve children's health and save lives. 12/11/2010

Climate change is a hoax! Have you seen HAARP? Global warming is not real its just a excuse to tax people for carbon pollution. Don't believe the corp media they control it to brainwash you.

" WARMING IS REAL, BUT NOT FROM CO2 & SUN: NASA announced 2008 was MINIMUM SOLAR. Wilkins Iceshelf collapsed WINTER of 2008. CONC: DEICERS ARE THE CULPRITS "

"John R. Christy is a meteorologist at the University of Alabama Huntsville and a climate skeptic; he is closely associated with Roy Spencer with whom he collaborated on the George C. Marshall Institute Roundtable discussion on climate change in April 2006."

.

Also it doesn't matter who pays his bills; he's a real scientist using real science.

@FreedomInAmerica "leading Climate scientist".... what a joke. Christy has been on the payroll of large energy companies for years. No really?... the urban heat island effect is caused by.... what every single climatologist claims it is caused by? Of course, as is a great deal of other anthropogenic effects on the climate. What ever makes you think that CO2 is the only effect people have on Climate? leave the science to the scientists mate.

[FreedomInAmerica]

Leading Climate Scientist John R. Christy researched two independent data sets, weather balloon and satellite. He found from this information gathered from the bulk of the atmosphere that climate change was neither catastrophic nor anthropogenic. He also stated that increase in surface temperatures in the cities were because of pavement, concrete and other structures and not as a direct result of greenhouse gases.

One solution is to give up eating meet. Or reduce it. It goes a long way in reducing the effects of global warming. In fact, if just 10% of the meat eaters go vegetarian, climate change can be reversed.

[mithras1001]

WE already have the solutions! its the bloody oil companies, the banks and the governments that keep them hush hush. The game is rigged! we can't do anything till there is transparancy in government so we can get into the black projects and delve into the anti grav technology. check out the tr-3b flying triangle. an american plane that uses this new technology and it has zero emitions, travels 10,000mph and is hidden by the governments!!!

[mithras1001]

There is already he technology in US governmental Black Projects to cut the worlds harmful emitions by 1000%, however, they are sat on top of them and they would take "environmental and global catastrophies" to be ever let out. (according to the CIA). Gary Mckinnon found the evidence for this when he went hacking. however, they decided to label him a criminal and call for his extrodition. Until the vail of secrecy is lifted from the governments their is no point in combating climate change!
