Get Energy Smart! NOW!

This guest post is from CertaiNOT, who listens to talk radio so that you don’ t have to … Environmental groups thinking of protesting anywhere to support action on climate change should consider picketing the Limbaugh and Hannity superstations.  There may be no better place to get Obama’s back and show support for global warming […]

This guest post from Josh at Enviroknow is the most comprehensive and organized post about ClimateGATE that has emerged to date.  Josh will be updating this excellent reference document here.
