Culture Change Web Site

This web page has many links that will lead me to a lot more information. But, generally, this site has a lot of data on the relationship between culture and climate change. There is recent climate news, articles, what people can do, what people are doing, and numerous essays and journals. This main page also describes why it is vital for people to act now.
"Global warming kills 160,000 a year already." This fact is another reason that will compel people to make a difference. This number will most certainly increase as the global temperature rises. Not only is the environment at risk, but our health is too. As global warming becomes more prevalent, people will realize that, if they don't make changes to their lives, their family and homes will be at risk.
From this page, I was able to navigate to Milan's U.N. Climate Change web page. This is more of a governmental/business/economic approach to my question. It talks about different countries and what each is doing/has done. The title on the top of this page is "The climate change negotiations as seen through the reaction to Mad Cow disease in the U.S.A." Threats to livestock and agriculture are provoking conferences . This is a very important fact, and helps me narrow down to an answer for my question.
