Climate change and the picture that is worth a million words

March 17, 2011

Hard to imagine being able to come up with a illustration of climate change quite so stunning, and apt – this is art at its best and I’m full of admiration for both the concept and the execution. Wish I could think of things like this…

    It is a great illustration, but I can already here the retort from the deniers. It’s a pity that this kind of thing has impact on the already engaged and only entrenches “contrarians” even further.

    It brings to mind the words of Dave Angel. ” Mother Earth is heating up like a dirty great big cake and if we’re not careful the icing’s going to melt. The world is turning, and we’re not learning.”
