Welcome to your complete guide of Global Warming Issues
Future Friendly is working with climate change campaign Global Cool to bring you the latest news on global warming.
Global Cool is a ten-year campaign to save a planet. By inspiring one billion people worldwide to reduce their personal CO2 emissions, Global Cool will help to defeat global warming. This is not cheap talk. Global Cool is backed by the biggest names in entertainment, including Sienna Miller, Josh Hartnett and Maroon 5, and the smartest names in environmental science who know that a billion people X a modest reduction of one tonne of CO2 per person = a billion less tonnes of CO2 = a significant slowdown in global warming.
