Global warming heated the water of the Gulf and Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean, resulting in greatly increased energy and water vapor in the air above the water. When that happens, extremely energetic and wet storms occur more frequently and ferociously.

Denial is not just a river in Egypt. Hurricane Sandy is not just a wakeup call. It is just a sign of far worse storms to come. If you are concerned about the future of our children and the kind of world we are leaving for them, then it is time to become more aware of the problems created by global warming and the solutions to this problem. It is time to break through the wall of silence of the corporate media by seeking out alternative media sources which are available through websites such as opednews.com and alternative news sources such as Link TV and Democracy Now dot org on Free Speech TV and also on You Tube.
