Sobering Climate Change Report

Nov
18
2007

The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has finally released its watershed report on the effects of climate change and the results are staggering to say the least!

“Without urgent, aggressive steps to stop greenhouse gas emissions, climate change will cause devastating heat waves, floods, starvation and disease.”

Here we sit, in a country that is blessed with some of the best water, soil and living conditions on the planet and it makes us wonder how we have let this come to be.

It is time for ALL Canadians to stand up and be counted! Let’s all do our part!

The full report can be found HERE.

Mark W. Law has been a writing and journalism fanatic since he was first tagged to write a 3 act ’shadow play’ – in Grade 2! Originally from the wee hamlet of Oyster Bay, BC, Mark has worked in many parts of the world, including almost all of the Canadian provinces, the United States, Europe and even a sand-filled radio station in North Africa. During that time he has written for military and local newspapers, served as editor for a number of online magazines as well as publishing his own popular ezine for new writers and artists – The ThinWire Journal. Mark has also penned more than 100 poems and essays and is an internationally known digital artist. And for anyone who lived in Northern BC during the 1980’s and 1990’s, Mark was the ‘morning weatherman’ on CBC Radio.
