Climate Change Drive to Continue in 2008

Happy New Year! While 2007 showcased a lot of efforts originating from various countries and organizations, the climate change awareness has indeed been astounding. However, it still remains that a lot of things have to be addressed and if we are to turn things around as far as the green movement and awareness is concerned, lots of it are expected to continue in 2008.
Look back and enumerate the countless efforts, you would think that we are gaining headway. On the contrary, unless we spread the world more, we can soon see it as playing on a tipping scale. We make a good deed only to see it negated by another. But who knows? Maybe 2008 can spring up some surprises and we may save the world yet.

Some of the big ones were the energy bill, Al Gore’s Oscar and Nobel (the latter shared, it should be noted, with the IPCC), the polar bear’s trajectory toward extinction, and the local-food movement (including the editors of the New Oxford American Dictionary picking as the word of the year ‘locavore’).
