What Climate Change influences Outside of the Environment

We often do not think of the social and civilization implications of a changing climate. In this video we see that climate change doesn't just affect the environment. Serious climate change will reach right into the heart of society. I like this video because it shows how skeptics, who weren't scientists, became believers as they looked at the trends and threats from their field of expertise, in this case National Security.

Why It Is The Way It Is

Treehugger.com has a very good article with an accompanying video on why we have a continual debate in this country about global warming and climate change. It is a very informative video interview with Jon Krosnick who is a social psychologist. I'm including a similar interview video with Dr. Krosnick in this post, but I encourage you to visit the Treehugger post as well, in order to see the new interview. Remember, it's about understanding our opponents in order to make progress with them.
