Get Scared

(via MS) MUST READ this blog post if you want to know how urgent progress on climate change must be. If we don't act right now, there's a possibility CO2 levels will rise to 80-100 ppm which could mean:

1. Sea level rise of 80 feet to 250 feet at a rate of 6 inches a decade (or more).
2. Desertification of one third of the planet and drought on one half of the planet, plus the loss of all inland glaciers.
3. More than 70% of all species going extinct, plus extreme ocean acidification.
