Have you been reading articles or books about climate change?
Do you feel that they aren't being taken seriously by the masses?
I've been interested in environmental issues for years, reading articles and some books on energy consumption and conservation.
I recently started reading two books, "Gaia's Revenge", by Sir James Lovelock, and "We Are the Weathermakers", by Tim Flannery. I laid them both down, so that I could sleep at night, and continue to go to work. I plan to read them during March Break, when I can lie awake without having to get up early.
I've also recently read about mass demonstrations, major swings in public opinion concerning the environment and such, but seem to be surrounded by people who stare blankly at me whenever I bring up anything related to climate change. It makes me feel lonely and somewhat frustrated.
I have been making changes to my lifestyle, in spite of the feeling that I'm being regarded as "eccentric", at least, if not bonkers.
I am writing this blog to try to connect with like-minded people.
Have you considered moving close to work, downsizing your accommodations, walking/biking/busing, refusing to fly...etc? I'd love to hear from you.
