It's Getting Hot In Here... So Take Off All Your Clothes

This past week Ambular and I watched “An Inconvenient Truth.” It is scary. Al Gore lays-out a rock-solid case. There is no getting around the fact that the human race is negatively affecting the earth’s atmosphere.

I had always harbored doubts about global warming. It seemed so distant and theoretical. It could be cyclical; I doubted the existence of a constant warming trend. Besides, as a Minnesotan, I would be fine with turning the global thermostat up a few degrees.

If you have doubts watch “An Inconvenient Truth.” If you have family, friends, co-workers, or Presidents who doubt global warming (or coyly refer to it as “climate change”) try your best to get them to watch it. This is not a partisan issue. This is our latest and greatest challenge as a human-race. (Sorry for the drama, but we absolutely MUST solve this problem. Or at least collectively acknowledge its existence.)

Besides, the coasts are nice places to visit.

I hope you don't mind my nazi electricity-using-device-turning-off; I'm definitely freaked out by the science.
