I just signed up for Blog Action Day 2009.  The topic is Climate Change, or as some are starting to call it: Climate Disruption. My actualy blog post will probably be filed on The CivicActions blog, but I'll be sure to copy it hear as well.

I was pretty shocked to hear about the massive flooding in Georgia, where it seems just last year, the region was suffering from a terrible draught.  This summer in seattle it was VERY dry, for longer than usual, while in NY it was VERY wet, and not nearly as hot.  What all of this points to is "Global Wierding" of the weather.  We cannot really predict where it will be hotter, where it will be wetter, where it will be cooler, and where it will be dryer, but I think that it is safe to brace ourselves for more weird weather, more unpredicatble weather. And climate change related displacement of people, especially but not exclusively in developing nations
