Global Warming is Real – Resources for the Concerned Citizen

Welcome to Global Warming is Real. This blog and our parent website globalwarmingisreal.com are for the concerned citizen trying to get to the bottom of this serious issue.

It is unfortunate that some would turn this into a political football. We try to stay above that, though there will be the occasional rant to keep things interesting.

The issue of climate change, global warming, and environmental degradation is too important to be used as a political football. It becomes increasingly clear that the answer to global warming does not lie with our political leaders, but with us.

Explore the site and think about the issues.

This is our imperfect attempt to help the thoughful and concerned among us to make sense of the rhetoric so they might make wise choices for the future.

Time is short and leadership is lacking – we must lead ourselves.
