Two news stories today point out the need for us all to take off the blinkers and start working together on the global warming problem.

One story concerns the apparent efforts of the Bush Administration to keep bad news under wraps. The New York Times headlined it, “Climate Expert Says NASA Tried to Silence Him ^[1]“.

Then a BBC story suggests the picture is much worse than most people realize. The headline there is “Stark warning over climate change ^[2]“. If we all don’t do something now, this is going to be even tougher for our grandchildren to live with. Some of the harmful changes may already be irreversible.
