There is no doubt that rapid and extreme climate change is real, is accelerating across the globe and will affect more people than does war. Our fate is in question as the climate and ocean temperatures warm.

Gary Braasch World View of Global Warming Gary Braasch spoke at the Green Cities Conference in Oakland, Ca. in May 2005 where this interview took place after seeing his presentation which included his incredible photos. Braasch is a photo journalist who has been photographing and documenting ecosystems of the earth in all their beauty and complexity for many years. Since he visited many of the same places from the Arctic to Antarctica, from the glaciers to the oceans, across all climate zones year after year he noticed the extreme changes in temperature and its effects on the landscape. There is no doubt that rapid and extreme climate change is real, is accelerating across the globe and will affect more people than does war. Some of the animals and plants with whom we share the planet are adapting and some are going extinct. We humans are animals as well and our fate is in question as the climate and ocean temperatures warm. It is believed that the recent enormous destruction of the hurricane that hit Louisiana and Mississippi is a result of global warming as are the droughts and other climate changes resulting in a much harder life on earth. Braash's direct experience and witnessing of these changes has led to his commitment to inform people about the urgency of taking action to slow down global warming which is threatening life on earth including our own.
