VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Play, download and edit the free video Climate Change: The Water Paradigm.
In this video, we explore why maintaining a healthy water cycle may be much more important for the health of the climate than people realize. In case you are wondering, this is not to suggest that the greenhouse effect due to CO2 or methane is insignificant. But I do think that the importance of the water cycle has been grossly under-emphasized, and should occupy a more central position in environmental discourse.
