Wow.... Yesterday I turned on the TV just in time to catch FOX news addressing the latest UN report regarding global warming. Though I can't really say that I am all that shocked, they actually were trying to discredit the findings by saying that they were put together by hundreds of politicians and not by thousands of leading scientists. To be fair, I've come to expect this type of rhetoric, having spent most of my life here in Texas, but it still is tough to swallow when you realize that your neighbors are some of the most ignorant people on the planet.
The good news though, is that the general public is starting to realize that the debate over climate change is no longer taking place, and that action must be taken soon if we want to avoid the worst case scenarios.
I'd call today's UN report a small step in the right direction, even if FOX news remains in complete denial.
