The world is one second away from a new age

In terms of millennium timeline, a minute is like 10,000 years. So a second... you do your own math.
Unless you have been spending the last few years on planet Uranus, you would have known that there's something funny going on terra firma as well as in the atmosphere.
You don't need to have a degree in meteorological science to feel it in your guts that something is not quite right. Not that Al Gore hasn't influenced you in some great way.
Al Gore is right about the dramatic changes that have been plaguing Earth for the past 12 years. It is disconcerting how many leaders around the world still have their heads in the ground, much like the famous feathered creature we know about.
Are these people not concerned? I have a hunch that they feel by the time, the game is at set point, they won't be around to feel the full impact of Nature's fury.
So what are we to do? Those of us who are now in our 20s will probably live to see all the earth-shaking changes that will alter Earth's geographical direction.
There are some things we can do to alleviate future aftershocks but it is only with a willingness to change that we can buy future generations some time.
This is not going to be the end of the world. This is going to be the end of the world as we now know it. How future earth will look like is anyone's guess. It won't look the same though in 2020, as it is now in 2008.
From now up till 2020 is 12 short years. I was thinking of last year's Christmas celebrations because the memories are still fresh in my mind, and already I am sniffing at the threshold of April. That's four months ago.
Everything changes in time and with time. The Earth is a living organism. As with any living form, if conditions are conducive, it will grow stronger, prettier and brighter.
Poor conditions will lead to it withering, being in a sad state and lead it down the road to a premature destruction. If we were to apply these conditions to Earth as a living planet, the conclusion is as clear as the morning sky on a cloudless day.
The choice is yours as well as mine. We really have no time to lose.
