The "Global warming can" will be kicked down the road just like other cans (deficit, taxes, budget, S.S./Medicare, etc. etc.) until and if there is a crisis. And that just is the way it is...

Except that we as a society have total control of the deficit, taxes, budget, SS/Medicare, etc.. Not so with global warming.

I read recently that the polar bear population has actually increased over the past several years.

Thank Goodness. I don't want OUR Polar Bear to be endangered or his dear wife.

Very interesting to hear all about the global warming but the effect has been amazing on some critters.
For example, Polar Bear was red-hot on the golf course yesterday! |

I find it disheartening that some take such a dismal view of making changes. I won't give up my AC but maybe I can live with 78 degrees; I can plant native plants so I don't need to use as much water to irrigate; I can bring my own bags to the grocery store and cut down on the use of plastic; I can buy energy efficient appliances, recycle as much as possible; buy more efficient autos and drive less....little things everyone can do that collectively may help.
I also agree that nothing will be done until it becomes a catastrophe and then there will be much stricter restrictions. |

It's the rate of the calving that's concerning. But I give up. Lesson learned.
