The Al Gore movie “An Inconvenient Truth” is without exception painful to view. Global warming and our delights in having another warm day and no snow in winter is telling us something has gone very askew. The Al Gore movie presents our current and future demise, with such restraint of pain, it’s admirable. How […]

Kyoto Accord

What is the Kyoto Accord? So glad you’re wondering. The Kyoto Accord or Kyoto Protocol is a treaty agreed upon in 1997 in Kyoto, Japan by countries around the globe. It sets out a standard requirement for countries worldwide to reduce their harmful gas emissions that are causing global warming.
The Kyoto Accord is encouraging countries […]

Solar powered cars - now this is something more my speed. Solar powered cars still have more intricacies to be worked on in regards to manufacturing them on a large scale, but as I’d mentioned in another forum, don’t all resources?
One of the fastest solar powered cars, ok - the fastest namely: Nuna […]

The consequences of global warming are severe and not without critical, immediate concern and action. It affects our personal health, our environment, agriculture and food supply, forests, eco-systems, seas, oceans, rivers and streams, air and almost without saying – our future generations.
Mild to severe effects of the consequences of global warming are already being experienced […]

There are many, almost uncountable ways to prevent global warming. You could start with: your home, while in your car (is public transit an option?), at work, at school, reach out to governments and local businesses, your waste and of course – green plants – plant a tree or grow some green.

In today’s field of scientific study,

what is global warming, why is it occurring and what can be done about it […]

Cause of Global Warming

The cause of global warming is in part natural but scientists around the globe are in agreement that human activities contribute to global warming on a large scale. Fossil fuel (our main contributor to the causes of global warming) such as carbon dioxide is wreaking havoc on what we need to survive. We are adding […]

Canadian Moose

Have you ever patted a wild, live Canadian moose in its own habitat on the nose? I have. This Canadian moose had stuck its nose halfway into the opening of my car window. Years ago when there was no fencing on the main roads through the Canadian Rockies you’d see plenty of Canadian moose.
This […]

Reindeer Caribou

Reindeer Caribou in Europe are named reindeer, while Alaska and Canada title only the domestic caribou “reindeer”.
To simplify matters though, throughout the world reindeer caribou are all considered to be the same species. I’d mentioned the Canadian caribous (x4) above in my last post. The four remaining ones are the Finnish forest reindeer (R.t. fennicus), […]

Caribou In Canada

There exists four types of caribou in Canada, namely the Peary Caribou, Woodland Caribou, Barren-ground Caribou and Grant’s Caribou.
The Peary Caribou is smaller and the lightest and not as well known as the other two. They live on the Canadian Arctic Archipelago Islands with limited borders for habitat.
The Barren-ground Caribou is somewhat larger than the […]
