"When you warn people about the dangers of climate change, they call you a saint. When you explain what needs to be done to stop it, they call you a communist." - George Monbiot

"Global warming is too serious for the world any longer to ignore its danger or split into opposing factions on it." -Tony Blair

Mission Statement

Global warming, environmental stewardship, the energy economy, and creating a sustainable future are the issues of our times. What we do as a civilization today will affect our progeny for generations to come. Global Warming is Real is published to help raise awareness of the reality before us.

We work hard to aggregate and synthesize the latest news and information together in one place for our readers. As with any blog, any magazine, any newspaper, any television talking head, you should not assume everything we say or present is always 100% accurate. Challenge us. But be prepared to back up your argument, and demand the same from us.

The content offered on this site and blog is meant to educate, enlighten, perhaps enrage, and maybe even entertain. If it gets you thinking seriously about global warming and sustainability, then we’ve done our job.

By its very name – Global Warming is Real – we give away our “bias”. We have an opinion about the science, politics, and policy of climate change and we express it in our editorial rants category. There are also essays based on our own research on global warming and other environmental issues to help inform readers.

We are not scientists (though some of our best friends are). We read and study extensively on these issues (this makes us loads of fun at parties), but we are merely concerned citizens interested in raising awareness of the issues of climate change, global warming, energy use, and sustainable living; presented for other concerned citizens to help them make sense of the challenges we face in the early 21st century.
