You're right Paco Dennis, there's a wealth of information available and good guidelines on choosing what to believe. And so much of that information serves to high how wonderfully balanced this global system is. I've sure learned an even deeper respect and reverence for our planet as a result of all my reading and video viewing.
.Some videos are easier to watch a little bit at a time aren't they? Especially if you're tired. You should see the line of tabs that I have waiting for me to get back to them, on my laptop. My husband is always harping on how it's my fault that my computer is running slower because I have so many tabs open
.Tech is great when it works but.......
So true. I used to argue with my late stepfather over the dangers to the environment. (We didn't use the phrases "climate change" or "global warming" back then.) And he always used to say, "Oh, will you stop your worrying! This old planet is a tough old rock, nothing can hurt it! Stop worrying!" Welp, the planet does contain some rock but that fragile, thin layer (I think it's called the troposphere?) that supports us and most other life is so delicate. Sure, the rocky parts of the earth can survive a lot but not the troposphere.
Same experience here! My mom and I used to be at loggerheads about it and it would always end with some kind of accusation like 'there's no talking to you tree huggers' or 'environmentalists are impossible to talk to' and we finally crossed the topic off the list of acceptable things to talk about. I wonder now, what she's thinking every time she sees another news piece about climate change and this weather crisis and that weather event that is causing havoc. How often does she remember those tense and short discussions we used to have?
