Earth Leaders Network (elnearth.com) is a group of Earth activists fighting for green laws. Rush Limbaugh the Republican talk show host, loves spreading misinformation about the science of climate change. 97% of scientists say climate change sped up by human pollution. Climate change is a simple to explain. More CO2 = More Trapped Heat – like a baby trapped in a hot car.
Since Rush thinks climate change is a myth, we want him to take a vacation to the hottest place in America- Death Valley California. There he will enjoy Death Valley’s 134 degree days and 15 degree nights. Activities will include hunting jackrabbits and lizards for food, finding water, finding shade, and surviving an entire day.
You can also donate to help ELN fight for laws that will reduce CO2. Please tell your friends as well. To take action for green laws, please join our forum at www.elnearth.com
Thank you for your help!
