“The biggest story of our time”–James Cameron, director

For years many people and many scientists have been saying there is no such thing as global warming and it will have no effect on human life. Now, finally, it is becoming obvious. I am seeing so many patients with allergies and autoimmune diseases, and chronic unwelless, and these conditions are clearly connected with global warming and the concomitant epidemic of environmental contamination. The American College of Allergy, Asthma,and Immunology has recently written about the relation between global warming and allergies. Also,TV news is talking about it. Increasingly, we see article after article talking about the relation between environmental toxicity (which is exacerbated by global warming) and the chronic degenerative diseases that we are seeing more and more of. Articles about environmental toxicity and Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease are appearing more frequently. The United States government and the governments of the world talk about making it better, but we see very little actually getting done.

I’m now delighted to announce to you that executive producers James Cameron, Jerry Weintraub, and Arnold Schwarzenegger have combined an all-star cast to bring this to the awareness of all the people. A new series on Showtime called Years of Living Dangerously has begun to air.  The producers have enlisted the help of many famous actors including Harrison Ford and Matt Damon to travel the world learning about this issue and sharing their thoughts.. I am happy to show you a preview of this wonderful new series right here in my blog.

Here is Harrison Ford getting an introduction form a very famous teacher on the science of how and why global warming is happening.

And here is an excellent video of Amy Goodman on Democracy Now talking about the show and interviewing the producer.

Be sure to watch the first episode for free on the Showtime website, or YouTube,and you can use your DVR to record the rest at home. The bottom line is that we ALL must now pay attention to the issue of global warming and participate in the efforts to reverse it–if not for our own sake, then for the sake of our children and our grandchildren who will inherit the world we leave them
