Best Global Warming Volunteer Opportunity
The most accessible volunteer opportunity to combat global warming is to change the way you live, and to do it in the most public way possible.
US citizens account for only 5% of the world’s population, but 25% or more of its total resource consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Our consumer society is a system with great inertia that has already contributed disproportionately to the onset of global warming. The types and scale of changes required to halt global warming will not be accomplished by governments concerned with reelection; if you want to see such change, you must initiate it, and start by altering your own life.
You can be a pioneer in the struggle to stop global warming
It is possible but difficult to do this alone, one volunteer. But the more people see the path you choose and examples you provide of what they can do, the easier it will be for them to join you. The more people work together in these ways, the more viable this alternate path becomes; together, you form a movement. You gain the visibility necessary to influence behaviors and change minds in other places, amplifying your positive impact.
Changing yourself is easy, you may say, but you’re only one person-how can you increase your impact?
There are three major levels at which to work:
* Personal change: This is where you have the most control: you can take many steps, including choosing to sell your car, ride your bike, buy your goods and services from the most local sources available, grow your own food instead of importing it from thousands of miles away, and retrofit your home or build a new one for maximum energy efficiency; you’ll drastically reduce your energy consumption in numerous ways, and be a direct example to others of the best opportunity available to halt global warming.
* Local change: Local and state governments remain relatively accessible to citizen activists, and have increasingly taken the lead on global warming, with more than 225 US cities pledging support for the Kyoto protocol or even more stringent reductions in emissions, despite foot-dragging at the national level. If you c

an join or start a local global warming/climate change action group, your efforts to influence your local government have a high likelihood of success. State and local politics often turn on anticipated economic impact and voter interest; bring this topic to council meetings, show what changes you are making and how many people are getting involved, and emphasize the power of local and state initiatives to spark innovation and bring economic growth in the growing fields of alternative energy and environmental remediation.
* Macro change: The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the highest international scientific body working on this topic, recently released its latest assessment and stated unequivocally that humans are causing global warming, laying out a range of likely global ecological changes over the next century that go from bad to worse, depending on how soon we can halt our greenhouse gas emissions. The reality of global climate change is no longer a matter of debate, and failure to engage in substantial, rapid change starting immediately must not be tolerated. At some level, local change begins to influence national debate. Use the power of your local and state accomplishments to influence your senators and representatives in Congress. Write or call them regularly to make clear that, far from injuring their elective prospects, supporting large-scale, rapid national action on the overwhelming US contribution to global warming is the only way to ensure your support and that of the rapidly growing body of environmentally-motivated voters.
You can volunteer to step off the fast track to global warming and find a more sustainable path
As Margaret Mead put it, “Never underestimate the power of a small group of committed citizens to change the world. Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.” You have the power to help determine our future. There is no time to waste. Global warming is happening now and the opportunity is ripe. Will you choose your future or wait until dire change is forced upon you?

The Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your FutureAmericans are over-regulated and over-taxed. When regulation escalates, the result is an increase in regulators. In other words, bigger government is required to enforce the greater degree of regulation. Bigger government means bigger budgets and higher taxes. "More" simply doesn't mean "better." A perfect example is the entire global warming, climate-change issue, which is an effort to dramatically and hugely increase regulation of each of our lives and business, and to raise our cost of living and taxes. In The Greatest Hoax, Senator James Inhofe will reveal the reasons behind those perpetuating the Hoax of global warming, who is benefitting from the general acceptance of the Hoax and why the premise statements are blatantly and categorically false.
Climate of Corruption: Politics and Power Behind The Global Warming HoaxNew revelations demonstrate how politics and powerful special-interest agendas have warped the most important scientific debate of the 21st century.Melting glaciers, suffering polar bears, rising oceans—these are just a few of the climate change crisis myths debunked by noted aerospace expert Larry Bell in this explosive new book. With meticulous research, Bell deflates these and other climate misconceptions with perceptive analysis, humor, and the most recent scientific data.
Written for the laymen, yet in-depth enough for the specialist, this book digs deep into the natural and political aspects of the climate change debate, answering fundamental questions that reveal the all-too-human origins of “scientific” inquiry. Why and how are some of the world’s most prestigious scientific institutions cashing in on the debate? Who stand to benefit most by promoting public climate change alarmism? What true political and financial purposes are served by the vilification of carbon dioxide? How do climate deceptions promote grossly exaggerated claims for non-fossil alternative energy capacities and advance blatant global wealth redistribution goals?
With its devastating portrayal of scientific and government establishments run amok, this book is an invaluable addition to the tremendously popular literature attacking the scientific status quo. Climate of Corruption will bring welcome relief to all those who are fed up with climate crisis insanity.
Global Warming: A Very Short IntroductionGlobal warming is arguably the most critical and controversial issue facing the world in the twenty-first century, one that will affect every living creature on the planet. It is also an extraordinarily complex problem, which everyone needs to understand as clearly and completely as possible. This Very Short Introduction provides a concise and accessible explanation of the key aspects of global warming. Mark Maslin discusses how and why changes are occurring, sets current warming trends in the context of past climate change, examines the predicted impact of global warming, as well as the political controversies of recent years and the many proposed solutions. Fully updated for 2008, this compelling account offers the best current scientific understanding of global warming, describing recent developments in US policy and the UK Climate Change Bill, where we now stand with the Kyoto Protocol, and the latest findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Maslin also includes a chapter on local solutions, reflecting the now widely held view that, to mitigate any impending disaster, governments as well as individuals must to act together.
2084: An Oral History of the Great Warming (Kindle Single)By 2084, global warming has proven worse than even the worst-case projections of scientists at the turn of the century. No country and no individual has escaped. Through interviews, this book of oral history captures the effects of the Great Warming on various countries and individuals, as reported in the year 2084.
Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years, Updated and Expanded EditionSinger and Avery present—in popular language supported by in-depth scientific evidence—the compelling concept that global temperatures have been rising mostly or entirely because of a natural cycle. Using historic data from two millennia of recorded history combined with the natural physical records found in ice cores, seabed sediment, cave stalagmites, and tree rings, Unstoppable Global Warming argues that the 1,500 year solar-driven cycle that has always controlled the earth's climate remains the driving force in the current warming trend. Trillions of dollars spent on reducing fossil fuel use would have no effect on today's rising temperatures. The public policy key, Singer and Avery propose, is adaptation, not fruitless attempts at prevention. Further, they offer convincing evidence that civilization's most successful eras have coincided with the cycle's warmest peaks. With the added benefit of modern technology, humanity can not only survive global climate change, but thrive.

Sad…
All people are worth saving, even the child populations in Africa and elsewhere, you know, the ones who routinely starve for lack of sustenance.
If you support the Global Warming / Climate Change scare, you are support a group of elitists who firmly believe eugenics is the way to go. You know about eugenics? The Hitlerian method of solving a so-called “overpopulation crisis”?
The actual way to help reduce birth rates in third-world countries is to help them become more wealthy. That plan requires cheap, plentiful energy. Get off the global warming scare. It’s not real. It was cooked up specifically, with full knowledge of its fraudulence, to promote eugenics and, not coincidentally, some form of world governance. Check out Robert Holdren, Margaret Mean, Stephen Schneider and their cozy meeting in 1975.
