today is blog action day.
the topic: climate change.
Upon reading the Top 100 Effects of Global Warning a few thoughts came to mind:
I would be a different person if there was no Christmas trees, I mean come on. Not to mention baseball?!?
How about no lobster or salmon? WHAT!?!
Climate change is a real thing, granted the rapid melting speed of polar ice caps may or may not be true, but that doesnt discount that it is happening.
FACT: our world is not as fresh as it once was. this is true. pollution is true. we live, we create waste and often times, we do not clean up after ourselves.
Solution: Living as "Green" as possible
whether this is just turning off the lights when not in the room, turning off the water faucet when idling standing at the kitchen sink, or not driving around town just to drive around town.
Today I shall conserve as much as I can.

Your husband doesnt believe in global warming. Better have words with him about that. PS, today in the news, scientist said that this summer there will be no ice in the arctic ocean. That seems like rapid polar melting to me.
Although I agree that we MUST take steps to have a cleaner world, I just can't buy into the "Global Warming" theory at any level
Nuff of that, miss you and hope your life is great. Hope to see you soon.
