From Global Warming to Climate Change to Climate Crisis.

The concept of tipping points was introduced by the IPCC 20 years ago, but then it was thought they would only occur if global warming reached 5°C. Recent IPCC assessments, however, suggested that tipping points could be reached between 1°C and 2°C of warming.

Political Influence on Climate Change Research

How did the warnings from climate scientists on global warming go unheeded? How did we go from bad to worse in just 17 years? Lobbyists aka Traitors have infiltrated the political scene to silence and sensor the climate experts. A household name in the year 2005 was Philip Cooney, a lobbyist, and lawyer for Big Oil, aka ExxonMobile, who was temporarily successful in silencing a leading NASA scientist.

The video collection below may disturb you. If you are compelled to act, do so responsibly and ethically. You can start by being a good steward of the environment and helping others to do the same.

If you have been a good steward of our planet, I thank you and millions of other concerned people now and those yet to be born thank you too.

Rick Piltz is a former senior associate in the coordination office of the U.S. Climate Change Science Program. In 2005, he blew the whistle on the White House's improper editing and censorship of science program reports on global warming intended for the public and Congress. GAP, which represented Piltz, released edited reports to The New York Times that documented the actual hand-editing -- by White House Counsel on Environmental Quality Chief of Staff Philip Cooney, a lawyer and former climate team leader with the American Petroleum Institute -- which was done to downplay the reality of human-driven global warming and its harmful impacts, and exaggerate scientific uncertainty. This scandal sparked a media frenzy that resulted in the resignation of Cooney, who found a job at ExxonMobil days later.

Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns, mainly caused by human activities, especially the burning of fossil fuels.

Despite overwhelming scientific evidence, some American politicians continue to deny that climate change exists.

Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns, mainly caused by human activities, especially the burning of fossil fuels.

Global warming is the defining threat facing the planet. So why has so little been done to curb it?
