I was born in Inuvik and have worked in the far north most of my adult life. I can tell you first hand that there is something weird going on up there. You can get a sunburn on a cloudy day - It wasn't like that when I was a kid.
Talk to some Inuit people(not many in western Michigan I suppose -
), they are genuinley scared about whats going on. They have carved their existence from the ice for a few thousand years and have a pretty good understanding of changing weather. Their hunting season has become deperately short as the ice melts so soon nowadays. They fall through the ice because they expect it to be thick and strong. Their mortality rate is rising in spite of modern medicine. But what would they know compared to the op-ed you read..
Do you we-can't-do-anything-wrong types ever leave the sanctity of your country edens? There are crimes being committed against the system that keeps you alive. I think you guys lash out at anyone that wants to change a system that is failing our planet - you might have to change your wasteful lifestyle. For the most part I believe us to be terrible stewards of the land. Try looking at yourself the next time you attack people for trying to right the wrongs inflicted upon Mother Nature.
