Climate Damage and Health

David A. Fahrenthold's October 27, 2009 Washington Post article "Ailing Planet Seen As Bad For Human Health" discusses a study of how climate change hurts human health and that the "warming planet is likely to leave more people sick, short of breath or underfed" (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/10/26/AR2009102602402.html. Even if emissions are capped, the damage is already done (ibid).

But even if the damage is already done, we can do something to prevent more damage: use totally green, emissions-free energy. With no emissions, there's no more pollution to add to the problems. It can happen. It will help. For more information, please see www.terrahumanafoundation.org.

Biofuels and Carbon Emissions

Studies have been done that show how biofuels will actually increase carbon emissions because of deforestation for growing land and fertilizers (http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/N2225048.htm).

We don't need any kind of biofuels. For more information, please see www.terrahumanafoundation.org.

350 PPM

"350 is the number that leading scientists say is the safe upper limit for carbon dioxide--measured in "Parts Per Million" in our atmosphere. 350 PPM--it's the number humanity needs to get back to as soon as possible to avoid runaway climate change" (http://www.350.org/understanding-350#2).

We can change even more with totally clean energy. Please see www.terrahumanafoundation.org for more information.

Five Years

According to Dave Chameides' October 6, 2009, article "The Road To Copenhagen: Now Is The Time To Speak Up About Climate Change," if we do not do anything now, in five years it will be too late and we "will not be able to do much of anything about climate change."
(http://www.care2.com/greenliving/the-road-to-copenhagen-now-is-the-time-to-speak-up-about-climate-change.html).

We can do something now. For more info, please see
