I heard that is got pretty hot back in Maryland this week. I was in Virginia but I was caught in the same weather system. I was on my way down on Friday when the lightning storms hit. It was the most lighting I ever seen, though I must admit I don' get out much. Anyway this gives me an opportunity to bring up the climate change issue. Here is a TED talk by NASA scientist James Hanson, who has not given up trying to warn of the danger we are in.
Update 7/21/12:
Is it possible that the Climate Change issue can be revived? Climate Parents is a new movement which focuses on the climate legacy that we will leave to our children. The movement was given air time last Friday on Democracy Now.
This is a new movement, but not a new idea. Here is a moving 2007 TED Talk about a venture capitalist who was moved to act because he was challenged by his daughter.
