Just in case you needed to hear it “again, with feeling”, the New York Times published a report today stating that early drafts of the next report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change state that there is a more than 90% likelihood that since 1950 global warming has primarily been driven by the burning of fossil fuels.
We know it seems like we keep repeating ourselves, but I guess that’s are job here at GlobalWarmingisReal.com. In fact, if the language in the report remains unaltered, it reflects a subtle yet substantive change since the last report released in 2001, where it stated that there was a 66 to 90% chance that recent global warming was caused by human activity.
Indeed, with the help of the new Democratically controlled Congress, even the White House may begrudgingly be acknowledging the serious threat we face with climate change and global warming.
We should not, however, wait for either the White House or Congress to act. Each one of us can make a differance in small ways. A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step.
