MOTHERING THE EARTH

Poop. I have like two minutes to discuss a very important topic; climate change.

Wait! Don't click to the next blog! I know I'm a mommy blogger, but climate change is right up there with the stress and responsibility of potty training in my book.

Because my children's future isn't just about dry underwear and neither is it for your kids.

There's a climate change article making waves across the internet. New Scientist attempted to take a comprehensive look at how we're going to survive what's coming. The article is here. The climate change map is here (zoom out so you can see all the 'pins'. Click on the pins to read what will happen in each region.)

Hot weather never felt so chilling.  Look at who will potentially be growing food on the map vs. who won't. Look at who will be providing energy vs. who won't.  In the twilight of my lifetime and the prime of my daughter's the entire geopolitics of the world will change.In a hundred years it is likely that the US will no longer be the world's breadbasket. If we do not move forward with a green revolution and become green technology leaders, not only does the planet lose,but so does our nation.

The conversation, a very important one that I hope you will join, continues over at Crunchy Chicken.
