| Bradley and Jane have joined a campaign
to raise awareness of the effects of global warming. The website
ClimateStar.org has been launched by the Union
of Concerned Scientists and the Earth Communications
Office to highlight global warming and encourage
action against its progression.
From the ClimateStar.org website:
Mark Twain might as well
have been talking about global warming when he
famously remarked, "Everybody talks about
the weather, but nobody ever does anything about
it." For years we have heard so much about
the causes of climate change, that we've missed
the fact that there are simple, practical solutions
that can slow this growing problem. Technologies
exist today that can cut emissions of heat-trapping
gases and make a real difference in the health
of our planet. And these solutions will be good
for our economy, reduce our dependence on foreign
oil, and enhance our energy security.

 Family
Planning
We all want our children to have the best
of all possible worlds, but global warming is
threatening their future. Fortunately, making
a difference is as easy as purchasing energy
efficient products and driving fuel efficient
cars like hybrids. If only all parenting decisions
were this easy. Global warming isn’t cool.
Stopping it is.

 Don't
Be Fueled
The vehicle you drive has the single largest
impact on global warming of any action you take.
For each gallon of gas you burn, 20 pounds of
heat-trapping CO2 is released into the atmosphere.
When you buy your next car, make sure you get
the one with the best fuel economy in its class.
Global warming isn’t cool. Stopping it
is.

 Bedtime Stories
I’d like to be able to tell my children
that our planet is strong and healthy. Thanks
to global warming, however, they’re facing
a world with more extreme weather and the loss
of thousands of species and habitats. The way
we use fuel and energy is causing global warming,
but we can slow it down if we take action now.
Global warming isn’t cool. Stopping it
is.
