What are you interested in?

Information applicable to daily life. Positive and pro-active information about how I, personally, can do good stuff for the environment. Not stuff I can't do anything about... reading about that is just pointless and depressing.

Do you want statistics?

No, I don't really trust them.

Are you looking for future projections?

Maybe. Often they're just really unreliable, especially related to global warming. Future projections only with a certain degree of certainty... not just wild speculation.

Obviously you want to know what's going to directly affect you - not the five million starving kids in Africa or wherethefuckever amirite - but what do you want to hear about otherwise?

Political efforts to deal with global warming, on a regional and national level.

Would you rather have in-depth information on the usual suspects (skin cancer, smog) or would you like to learn about risks you might not otherwise have considered?

Risks I might not have considered.

What are your personal concerns regarding global warming?

Arctic-related stuff. Polar bears, glaciers, increased oil drilling because the ice is receding. Also local weather changes.
