This has been a brutally hot summer so far, breaking records all around the world.

This is NOT normal… the excess heat we are seeing in the atmosphere will transfer – as it always does – to the oceans, which will in turn fuel more-violent-than-average storms and floods.  And of course, longer droughts.

Not sure how to start saving the planet (civilization, really)?  Start by always remembering that “Hope is a renewable resource.”  

Then, our practical answer becomes “Deeply know the personal Superpowers” all humans bring to the game of life: 

1) To save the planet, CHANGE OURSELVES FIRST;

2) To save the planet, INVEST OUR WORKING LIVES;

3) To save the planet, USE OUR VOICES and take advocacy seriously!  Never miss a vote and never, ever stop influencing your government and all businesses locally, at the state level, and at the national level.  As well, set a solid example for all around you to see.  Jawbone to others about what we need to do, and influence them as peers.  Finally, have an annual cash donations program.  All of these are ways we can use our voices. 

Stay focussed:  Lead the way with substantive global warming solutions.  (Far from being a bummer, this is actually a fun trend for each of us to be part of… get energized!)  Our kids and their kids will be proud of us. 

And in all cases and at all times, cast aside the learned-helplessness that infects so much of modern life… the time is now for climate change solutions.  Never give up.
