Filmed for cphvoice.com: As part of Climate Week NYC, people gathered in Central Park on Sept. 20, 2009, to form a human hourglass in Trump Wollman Rink, to show that time is running out on the climate change debate. The event was organized by Oxfam.

5. K&R! Is time running out or has it already?

I just saw an excellent documentary on BBC Knowledge on glaciers and it came up with some very worrisome facts about glacial melt.

I can't find it on Youtube but have managed to find it as a torrent to download, though: http://www.mininova.org/tor/1916381

In fact, the whole series is available on Mininova: http://www.mininova.org/search/power%2Bof%2Bthe%2Bplanet/seeds

I've been wanting to start a documentaries http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=206x10">group, anyone interested in getting involved?
