I'm a futurist, a science fiction writer, and I work for a city. On all fronts, global warming worries me. Such a small thing - a few degress here and there. But I undersand chaos, and the flapping of a butterflies wings making a storm. So I thought I'd make this place to simply write down everything I read, see, or hear about global warming. How is it touching individual lives? - Brenda

Air Conditioning in Alaska
The Seattle Times ran an article today: Arctic town isn't so hot on warming, by Howard Witt of the Chicago Tribune. The Candian Inuit now need air conditioners in public buildings and have to shop for groceries. The ending quote in the article, from Kalluk, the village elder, is "I think there is global warming because snow that has never melted before is starting to melt now."
