My news feeds are full of commentary on the IPCC’s release of their mitigation report. Of course, since I have long been a student (formally and informally) of environmental issues, this is the kind of news I look for - maybe you haven’t been reading as much about it as I have. Plus, I do find these reports confusing for the average layperson. So imagine my delight when I came across a great eight-minute video, summing up the report.

This video was recommended by Katharine Hayhoe, climate scientist, University professor, and recently-named Chief Scientist for The Nature Conservancy. I have read several of her books, and she has a unique take on environmental issues, being both a Christian and a scientist, and someone who believes in active faith and hope. She is a good resource for scientific facts, but also for a positive outlook in the face of very frightening information. So, I knew this video would be helpful and I feel confident recommending it. I hope you enjoy it too, and are able to learn something from it - I sure did.
