[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's focus on the big picture.  Either we get this issue somewhat under control and slow the warming down, or there won't be an inhabitable world forany eagles, much less our grandchildren.  It's just that simple.

They've now discovered that in addition to sea ice melting MUCH faster than originally thought, the melting and thawing releases tons more greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere which will accelerate warming even further.

Most of us are parents on this board.  This is a calamity for future generations -- and not in the distant future, but our kids and our kids' kids.  The measures that we ultimately have to take are going to be a lot more serious than the current effects of wind turbines. [/quote]

I've been to Alaska twice.  The first time was ten years ago and the second was this year.  I badly wanted to take my 8 year old because I was afraid to wait until he became a teen.  I am so glad.  There was a noticeable difference between the glaciers of ten years ago and today.  The glaciers were much smaller.

Small towns in Alaska are depend on the tourist industry.  If the ships stop coming to port, the townspeople would pack up and leave.  At least that is what the tourguides repeated.  I would think that Alaskans would be at the forefront of climate change, but they are not.  Mind boggling.  [/quote]
