During 2015 I plan on regularly tweeting information
on climate change and global warming
as I believe we can make a difference
by tweeting, writing, talking and doing!

Now decades later the trees and foreshore are disappearing in some areas.

Climate change has also strongly affected the ocean.
Sea levels have already risen 2.8" (70 millimeters) in Australia since 1950's
and increasing ocean temperatures threaten the Great Barrier Reef (...at risk for bleaching)

What the Climate Tweets will be about
Tweets will include "everything and anything" from what we can do at home or work to positive changes and news in our global environment.
My first tweet for #Climate2015 is an article I wrote recommending five books to those who want an understanding of climate change and global warming as it relates today to our food, pollution, environment, chemicals and how these affect our health. Books to add to your reading list
Please join me in spreading awareness
of climate change and global warming
and encourage others to make a positive change
for the sake of our grandchildren and the future of the world.
Best wishes for the coming year ~ Liz

Global Warming Definition
from Oxford Dictionary
"A gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth’s atmosphere generally attributed to the greenhouse effect caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide, CFCs, and other pollutants."
Climate Change Definition
from Oxford Dictionary
“A change in global or regional climate patterns, in particular a change apparent from the mid to late 20th century onwards and attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels.”
