This lens presents a focus on Planet Earth, the environment, and issues surrounding climate change and global warming.

Resources include links for the classroom with an Internet library and original articles of interest to k-12 students, their teachers and parents.  A reading list is included with suggested titles available for purchase from Amazon.

2007 is shaping up to be the year where weather and climate are top news concerns. Recent news articles, current US weather watches and warnings, a Flickr gallery, DVD's, Google Earth updates and a selection of YouTube videos show us that global warming isn't just a recent concern, a fifty-year-old film presents scientist's concerns from two generations ago.  Presently we are finding proof that climate change is a real concern and it is time we pay attention, take responsibility, and work towards healing our planet.

1958 Global Warming Film 

1958 - Global Warming - It's NOT newly known

For FIFTY YEARS scientists have known about global warming. This exerpt is from the well known educational documentary "Unchained Goddess" produced by Frank Capra for Bell Labs for their television program "The Bell Telephone Hour." It was so well made, that it went on to live a continued life in middle school science classrooms across the nation for decades. Nearly half a century before Al Gore's "Inconvenient Truth," this film was made. But what does it reveal? That our scientists have known for over two generations about this danger, but our politicians and citizenry have chosen to ignore the dangerous implications of this fact until it really is too late to avoid the preventable consequences. Perhaps we deserve our fate.
