Welcome to a new blog series on KNME.org where we bring you some of the videos and sites that we're watching and visiting. It's true that the web is filled with a lot questionable video content. The goal of this series is to highlight videos that are thought provoking, insightful or just plain cool.
For the first installment, we're looking at climate change. I'm typing this in the Corrales Flying Star (giving a shout out both for the Mediterranean Nosh - try it with avocados - and for the free Wi-Fi) and watching a storm roll in from over the Sandias. There's been a lot of talk of the monsoons arriving early (or at least on time) this year. That inevitably leads to some discussion of our climate change. Most everyone knows Al Gore popularized the issues, but not many know he's been working on a sequel PowerPoint deck and presentation. He gave a conference in Cali a taste of it a couple months back. Give it a watch...
Of course Gore isn't the only one talking about climate change. New Mexico's Senator, Jeff Bingaman, gave a lecture at MIT on April 25 about this issue. It's definitely more of a wonkish presentation of the issue. You can watch that lecture here. (Note, you'll need Real Player...yes, it's still around...to see it.)
