I was fortunate enough to snorkel the Great Barrier Reef in 2003 and it was glorious. That it may never recover, at least not in a lifetime, makes me both sad and furious. Those who deny climate change, especially those in charge of setting national policies, are committing a crime against nature, and everyone (and everything) on the planet will soon pay for their transgressions.

  1. Alex Shull​ It's hard to believe anyone over the age of thirty can't recognize that the climate has changed dramatically in the span of their own lives. Just examining the the science of geology and the way that C02 is sequestered by nature in coal, oil, and methane. And that millions of years worth of this naturally stored CO2 is converted back to gas in our atmosphere by us. In a short time. The facts are there. How can so many be so damn stupid. Or uncaring?
