Climate Change Indicators in the United States

The Earth's climate is changing. Temperatures are rising, snow and rainfall patterns are shifting, and more extreme climate events—like heavy rainstorms and record high temperatures—are already affecting society and ecosystems.

WorldChanging: Tools, Models and Ideas for Building a Bright Green Future: Why Craft is Worldchanging

I have no talent myself to produce strong, useful and beautiful items. My craft is maintaining and fixing the things I have. So many things are disposable, from diapers to electronics. Anything that can be fixed is worth fixing. I love it when something that is beyond my capabilities and is finally dragged to the side of the road (we don't have a curb) and is picked up by someone who still sees value in it.

When you put out items for the trash haulers, do it a few days early and in a way it can be seen. Someone out there needs or wants it. It's a matter of displaying for the longest time to the largest number of passersby is a way they can look for it's value.
