the sky is NOT falling...

... but the the north and south poles are definitely melting fast!
You don't have to be all Gore to recognize that global warming is a chilling thing and strangely beautiful.



Scientists say the collapse could mean the Wilkins Ice Shelf is of the brink of breaking away, and provides further evidence or rapid change in the region.




DWNTWN Miami gets a dose of mother nature. How many Floridians are prepared to live without air-conditioners and cars? I venture few.



In geologic time 50 years is but a blink of an eye, a micro-second. So why do I feel so old?
.


Not all crack is bad.
But when the Wilkins Ice Shelf fractures into cruise-ship size splinters, that's bad.



Size is not everything, but some ice-cubes are huuuuuuumongous.
It's not the icebergs already in the ocean that worry "rising sea levelers" it is the ice on dry land that slips into the oceans that we should be very concerned about.



It's the day before the Day After Tomorrow.
No amount of "green washing" will make a dime of difference.



Clever dude... wonder how many miles-to-the-astroturf this walking lawn-wheel gets.
