Great stuff. It's great to see photography being used as a force for positive change.

The first step in creating change is by raising awareness of the problem. As people become more aware of the problem, they'll be more likely to change their behaviors and put pressure on government and business to do the same. In the end, a significant reduction in the emissions that cause climate change would be the ultimate in positive change.

Saw JBalog's presentation in Vero Beach Fla. last February while the air conditioners were humming away. One ldy asked the Question... but what can we do? People just don't get it. Florida might be under water in a lot less time than many people think. An incredible presentation as well as great photography.

People are ALWAYS going to think of themselves and their families first. 1/5 of this world's population doesn't know if they are going to eat that day. They are not going to care about ice melt. The true change will only come after catastrophe strikes. That is just the truth of human nature.
