I am not an alarmist, but I am alarmed. You should be too.
notes: Longer excerpt:
"To date 32 national academies have endorsed the fundamental reality of human caused climate change. Numerous professional organizations have also made clear statements to support the mainstream science. 97% of all climate scientists agree. NSF, NASA, NOAA, USDA, the NPS, and the CDC have active research programs predicated on the reality of human-caused climate change.
"The clarity of the climate change threat could not be greater.It is most sobering to realize that our present emissions trajectory will result in a global average warming of over 5 degrees C by 2100. Such a planet will not sustain civilization in any recognizable form.
"The excess CO2 that is pumped into the air today will affect our planet for thousands of years into the future. I am not an alarmist, but I am alarmed. You should be too."

You can also add The Catholic Church, the U.S. military, the CIA, National Geographic, American Meteorological Society, the insurance industry, and so many others. Who am I missing?
I like how he cites how "The excess CO2 that is pumped into the air today will affect our planet for thousands of years into the future." The result may be "Such a planet will not sustain civilization in any recognizable form." I love his catch phrase, because now I am alarmed also, and you should be too. Great Bite.
