It’s the debate over climate change that is stuck… Climate change itself continues, although controversial.
Some say it doesn’t exist, others want to know what causes it.
But to the people of low-lying Pacific Islands and natives of Alaska, the rise of ocean waters is evidence and puts things in perspective personally.
Look to the Artic for evidence and you’ll find it. The ice cover has reduced immensely the last 35 years. The storied Northwest Passage, for the first time in human history, became completely open in 2007. Since then, it has been open several times.
