Global Warming - Tick
Global Warming is an urgent problem but there are easy things every American can do to help
solve it. Distinguished scientists across the nation are surprised by the speed and severity
of the impacts we have seen and their effects on people's lives: the elderly suffering from
heat waves, families whose homes are threatened by floods and eroding coastlines, hunters
and anglers watching wildlife disappear and homeowners susceptible to mudslides. Scientists
are convinced that we now have a small window of time to avoid the most dangerous
consequences. If we don't join together to solve this problem now, our children will feel
even more dramatic effects within their lifetimes.
