It’s Snowing – Global Warming Mindshare

Img_0574Img_0570Img_0575 Img_0571

We are got our first snow today in Toronto after record-breaking warm weather so far this winter. With global warming, it is interesting how many elevator conversations, telephone small talk and professional lunch-time chats are turning into big debates about world pollution, what we can do as a society, if the science behind global warming is sound and whether or not the warming of the earth is "God’s will" (this actually happened in my friend’s elevator).  Talk about the weather is no longer a good refuge for those who want to keep the conversation "lite."

These recent warm days have taken on a sinister feel. Being in Canada with a warm January is like the unnatural feeling of being at a night-time baseball diamond when all of the lights are on. It feels like it is day… which is cool, but it is night – so the effectiveness of the unnatural light doing the work of the sun is eerie.

Welcome to the snow! I hope you stay a while!
