Here I am on the deck of an Alaska cruise ship in Tracy Arm Fjord with Sawyer Glacier in the background. We were priveleged to enjoy this together as a family a few years back. What a wonderful experience.
This is my specific reference for global warming. Tracy Arm Fjord is 23 miles long from its mouth. When Captain Cook was in this area in 1778 the entire 23 miles was filled with a glacier. When Mark Twain was in Alaska the fjord was much smaller.
It is clear that our planet is warming. It is less clear that we can and will work together to address this.
