We know the cause - this podcast is all about the effects.
The evidence is compelling. You don't need to be a scientist or environmentalist to understand the man-made consequences that are impacting our daily lives with greater frequency around the globe. From the killer heatwave in British Columbia, to the catastrophic and historic flooding in Pakistan - our world has changed.
Nature is scrambling to establish a new balance as a result of our collective exploitation of the planet with disastrous intensity. The burning of fossil fuels, the annihilation of the animal kingdom, unimaginable islands of floating garbage in our oceans, we have left nothing untouched.
This is one podcast you need to listen to.
Be informed, be enlightened and most importantly be inspired to do your part to save The Big Blue Marble.

WHY THIS PODCAST? MY BARBER MADE ME DO IT...
Report on climate change shows Canada warming at TWICE the rate than the rest of world. On average, temperatures in Canada have increased by 1.7 degrees (since records began in 1948).
Experts believe there will be more plastic than fish in our oceans by 2050. Globally, more plastic has been produced over the last decade than the entire century before it.
For decades conservationists in Kenya have struggled to protect African Elephants from poachers and habitat loss. Finally their efforts appear to paying off. The Reteti Elephant Sanctuary takes in orphaned elephants with a goal of releasing them back into the wild.
Truly honoured to receive this prestigious “Environmental Awareness” Award from Credit Valley Conservation Authority. In an era of rapid climate change, conservation authorities are important agencies tasked with protecting Ontario's fragile ecosystems. I look forward to propelling additional awareness on your ongoing efforts to protect and restore this very important watershed.
