    Undoubtedly, you have been affected by the recent severe weather whether you live in the Northeast or in the Midwest or across the world. Hurricanes, droughts, wildfires, heat waves and more are regularly occurring events whose impact is reaching far beyond what we’ve imagined. And why is that?

    Well, more and more research as well as environmental experts from all walks of life are pointing their fingers to one major cause: climate change. We are creating dirty weather patterns that are disrupting the Earth’s natural flow. How are we doing that?

    “We’re polluting our atmosphere with Dirty Energy like coal, oil, and gas. The result? The planet heats up. And we expose ourselves to Dirty Weather: Floods, droughts, heat waves, wildfires.” -The Climate Reality Project

    After listening in on “24 Hours of Reality: The Dirty Weather Report” on November 14 -15, the experts, scientists, military, politicians and activists all had the same message: WE CAN CHANGE WHAT IS HAPPENING TO OUR PLANET’S CLIMATE. Switching from our dirty energy sources and environmental practices to using clean energy and sustainable living can turn this whole ship around.

    Check out this video about what the Climate Reality Project is doing and how you can act now and get involved in stopping dirty weather from ruining our planet.

    The Climate Reality Project, founded and chaired by former Vice President and Nobel Laureate Al Gore, is dedicated to unleashing a global cultural movement demanding action on the climate crisis.
