Thanks to Edger at Docudharma for posting about this. James Balog discusses TED, the Extreme Ice Survey, and why perception is the enemy in the fight to survive global warming. The following embedded video was "[r]ecorded at TEDGlobal 2009, July 2009 in Oxford, England."
Seeing is believing. This is why it was so important to pass meaningful climate legislation instead of the cap-and-trade scam, which appears to be stalled anyway. If we as a nation - indeed, if we as a species - are going to survive the coming catastrophes, we MUST do something NOW. Baby steps and fake reforms will kill us all, guaranteed.
Time-lapse proof of extreme ice loss: James Balog on TED.com
"Ninety five percent of the glaciers in the world are retreating or shrinking... there is no scientific dispute about that"
Photographer James Balog shares new image sequences from the Extreme Ice Survey, a network of time-lapse cameras recording glaciers receding at an alarming rate, some of the most vivid evidence yet of climate change. (Recorded at TEDGlobal 2009, July 2009 in Oxford, England. Duration: 19:22)
