Climate Ain't Just Your Weather.

      Climate change isn't the daily weather, but the daily weather makes or breaks climate change. It takes years, decades of years to make our climate change from what it was to what it is and what it will be. Can you make or break climate change? No. It's bigger than you or me, its about what all of us do that can change what will happen to our climate. But one thing's for sure. If we don't change, then the climate will continue to change, for better or for worse.
       So, I live in the Northeast. We're accustomed to fairly cold, hard winters. It might be nice to have milder winters in the future. Except it'll mean more bugs in the longer, hotter summers. And life in the south will become very unpleasant in the summers. But what about droughts and too much rain? Are we ready for those kinds of changes? Storms that keep getting worse and worse, and hot dry lands and wildfires more dangerous each of the passing days.
       The thing is, we can guess and try to understand what climate change will mean to our children and grandchildren, but we can't know for sure. So which is the wiser course; just shrug and go on as usual as if nothing bad will happen or fight the change by cutting pollution and doing without a very few non-essentials. Do you really need that huge, fuel hog SUV as your second car? Why not a somewhat smaller size? Let's all drive a little slower.
       It's either that or invest in much more powerful air-conditioners. And think about giving up those SUVs all together in favor of ark style boats.
