Mother Nature Network

I spent some time looking around a new site today, the Mother Nature Network. I enjoyed one of the featured articles on there titled 8 ways global warming can kill you. In that story was the picture below, which is of Seattle but without Puget Sound in the picture but rather a dry cracked wasteland. Some of the ways to die were from severe weather, high temperatures, poor air quality, etc. The most interesting one was by animal attack! By what animals, you ask? Bears and Jellyfish were specifically spotlighted.

The Mother Nature Network also has sections of their site that are about lifestyle, green tech, eco-biz, food & drink, home, transportation and family. Inside the food & drink section there was another area of interest for me, beer!

I will finish with one more of their slideshows, it was titled 7 unlikely things global warming could take away. Some of these were Florida, skiing and pasta, but the weirdest one was waffles and the scariest one was beer! Yikes, apparently hops and barley are sensitive crops that don't like rising temps.
