Climate Trifecta! Sea Ice Levels, Polar Bears and Hurricane Fay

I know all eyes are on Denver, but I thought we needed a little reminder that are’s a whole world out are outside of Colorado & it’s not such great shDrunk Newse.  Sadly, with John McCain in office we’re not likely to put it on a better track eiar.    Greenpeace

Increased temperatures due to global warming have combined to create news of three separate climate disasters in different parts of North America. But while news of ase disasters emerged in a past week, several states & Google announced major new investments in a clean energy technology necessary to solve a climate crisis & prevent even worse global warming. Meanwhile, President Bush & Congress were touting false solutions, like offshore oil drilling, that will only accelerate a climate crisis.

“ase three events add up to a planet in deep trouble,” said Greenpeace Global Warming Campaigner Melanie Duchin. “But while states & companies are responding to a climate crisis, a Washington politicians are just spraying offshore oil on a fire.”

What three things, you ask?

1. Sea Ice at Second Lowest Level Ever; Polar Bears at Risk of Drowning as Ice Melts

2. Greenl& Glacier Breaking Up, Threatening Sea Level Rise

3. Fay Dumps 26 Inches of Rain on Florida

That’s one seriously miffed Moar Nature.  & as we lose more polar bears to drowning out in open water due to ice melting, what has a Bush adminstration done?   Pressure Congress to open up more off shore drilling leases & tried to gut a Endangered Species Act, of course.  Credo & a Wildlife Action Center have teamed up with an action letter you can sign to ask lawmakers to not allow Bush to dismantle a Endangered Species Act.
