World Wisdom: The Global Warming Foundation

"The world is changing, the climate is changing and it is happening NOW." 
 
In 2009, Peter Ticktin started The Global Warming Foundation (www.TGWF.org), which provides information to those already knowledgeable and accepting of this threat. He has an interesting viewpoint though - that burning fossil fuels in order to help our country prosper is fine.
 
He says we're already past the tipping point. He points out, for instance, that we are already getting storms such as Harvey, which dropped 4 feet, 2 inches of water on Houston. We should expect more of these with even more water. 70% of the Great Barrier Reef, a 1,400 mile living organism is dead. The streets of Miami and Norwalk periodically flood due to sea level change. Last Christmas the temperature on the North Pole was 32.7 Degrees Fahrenheit. It was melting on the shortest darkest days of the year. 
 
The good news is that there are more ways than one to skin a cat. Dropping the use of fossil fuels is like stopping eating. It isn't going to happen. It could work, except that it will take far more time than we humans have to change our ways. In the meanwhile, we can apply geo-engineering to give us the time we need to save our planet. This needs a good plan and it needs to be decided and applied soon.
