*Climate change a character in Discovery's 'Deadliest Catch' 
<http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/wireStory/climate-change-character-discoverys-deadliest-catch-46730502>*

    Climate change is one of the main characters in the new season of
    "Deadliest Catch," with the crab fishermen in one of Discovery's
    most enduring and popular shows forced to deal with a sudden warming
    of the Bering Sea that chases their prey into deeper, more dangerous
    water...
    That leads the adventure series into its own uncharted waters. The
    show's 13th season debuts Tuesday at 9 p.m. ET...
    "It's a big risk for us to discuss climate change because so many
    people can think that it's a political issue when really it isn't,
    particularly in the context of the fishing fleet," said R. Decker
    Watson, Jr., one of the show's executive producers...
    The waters off Alaska that provide the livelihood for the show's
    real-life stars warmed by a dramatic 4 degrees in one year. The cold
    water-loving crab is depleted in the traditional fishing areas, so
    some of the boats strike out for new territory that is more
    dangerous because of fiercer storms and is further from rescue
    workers if something goes wrong, he said...
    In fact, the new season documents one vessel lost at sea. It was not
    one of the crews regularly featured in the series, but all of the
    regulars knew who was involved, he said.

the earth is warming and humans are at fault, while the Obama 
administration prioritized fighting its effects.

    Permafrost, the layer of permanently frozen ground that lies just
    beneath the Earth's surface in the polar regions, has been found to
    be more sensitive to the effects of global warming than climatology
    had recognised...
    In a study published in Nature Climate Change journal, scientists
    say they expect the warming to thaw about 20% more permafrost than
    previously thought, potentially releasing significant amounts of
    greenhouse gases into the Earth's atmosphere...
    The study, conducted by climate change experts from the universities
    of Leeds and Exeter and the Met Office, all in the UK, and the
    universities of Stockholm and Oslo, suggests that nearly four
    million square kilometres of frozen soil – an area larger than India
    – could be lost for every additional degree of global warming the
    planet experiences...

    It is critical that anyone who believes the scientific evidence that
    is out there for all to see speaks out to their legislators and
    takes action to mitigate climate change. Anyone who still believes
    that Climate Change is a hoax - and the majority of us don't - needs
    to do some very easy research online. Here is a good link for
    starters: https://climate.nasa.gov/evidence...
    Even those who do follow what is happening to this planet may not
    know what is happening behind the scenes in Washington. According to
    an article written by an Arctic research scientist printed in The
    Guardian on March 28, this administration has been deleting data
    sets, webpages and policies about the Arctic and other scientific
    data on government websites ever since Inauguration Day...

*Atmospheric CO2 levels accelerate upwards, smashing records 
<http://www.nationalobserver.com/2017/04/10/opinion/atmospheric-co2-levels-accelerate-upwards-smashing-records>*

    The amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere continues to
    accelerate upwards despite global efforts
    The last two years had "unprecedented" increases
    Canadian CO2 extraction is playing an oversized role
    The primary driver of global warming, disruptive climate changes and
    ocean acidification is the ever-increasing amount of carbon dioxide
    in our atmosphere.
    Despite decades of global efforts towards climate policies, clean
    energy and efficiency, CO2 levels continue to rise and are actually
    accelerating upwards. For those of us hoping for signs of climate
    progress, this most critical and basic climate data is bitter news
    indeed. It shows humanity racing ever more rapidly into a full-blown
    crisis for both our climate and our oceans.
    That's the story told by the newest CO2 data released by the United
    States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

    /**/In the Spokane, Washington Spokesman-Review,
    "Democracy Now" host Amy Goodman observes: "The Pentagon knows it. The
    world’s largest insurers know it. Now, governments may be overthrown
    because of it. It is climate change, and it is real. According to the
    U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, last month was
    the hottest March on record for the United States since 1895, when
    records were first kept, with average temperatures of 8.6 degrees
    above average. More than 15,000 March high-temperature records were
    broken nationally. Drought, wildfires, tornadoes and other extreme
    weather events are already plaguing the country."
