<p><span>“<strong>This climate science is no longer a matter of opinion, </strong></span><a href="http://intentblog.com/congress-acting-like-toddlers-daycare/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">politics</a><span><strong> or dogma</strong>,” says <span>Bill Nye</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>the Science </span></span>Guy towards the end of the youtube video above. By the time the current population of children reaches middle age the human race’s carbon dioxide production will be double the earth’s natural carbon cycle – yet we are already seeing the hazardous effects through higher temperatures and more extreme weather. <strong><em>If we act now we can prevent things from getting </em></strong><strong><em>worse but we are <a href="http://letschangetheworld.ning.com/profiles/blogs/a-short-history-of-the-future" target="_self">dangerously approaching the point of no return</a> where we will be forced </em></strong><strong><em>to </em></strong><strong><em>recognise a new normal of extreme weather and unbearable temperatures</em></strong>. Why would we ever let that happen when there are so many clean energy sources being made available to us?</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://intentblog.com/vod-bill-nye-tells-everything-need-know-climate-change/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">That’s a question we should probably be taken more seriously</a></strong>.</p>
