Climate Red - News and Views on Climate Change Issues.

The purpose of this site is to inform the general public about the challenge of human-caused climate change, and to introduce quick and easy strategies that we can all use to reduce our impact on the climate. Yes, our global warming crisis is serious. Scientific evidence proving the relationship between the human production of heat trapping greenhouse gasses and a persistent increase in global mean temperature is overwhelming. However, scientists also believe that if we collectively act now, we can slow the damaging impact of warming on our climate, for both ourselves and future generations.

The Climate Diet's consistent message is: just consume less. And when we do need to buy something, consciously choose products and services that have the smallest environmental impact and are built to last. Resist the lure of thousands of marketing cues that bombard our senses each and every day. Instead of taking your kids to the mall, why not enjoy an evening at home or a leisurely walk along your favorite nature trail? Reconnect with your friends and family. Talk with your spouse or significant other. Smell the roses.
