It was reported that a mysterious black blob, unlike anything seen, is growing in Alaskan waters. It turned out to be organic rather than some hydrocarbon.
Playing a little, what if climatic change came in the form this as yet to be identifed "Artic goo", which is the what the Achorage Daily News reported the water anomaly was. Imagine a scenario in which the most basic of organisms takes over the oceans in a matter of years rather than eons, changing the environment in unpredictable ways. Now the article doesn't say that, nor do the experts that don't know what it is, but its worthy to note that change can be nearly instantaneous, especially in a geological time frame. More reason to not sit around and wait to finish weatherizing the house - its not godzilla coming out of the ocean to step on your home but algae seeping in through the cracks!

- I've been doing things renewable since I needed a switch from things Internet. Its funny but I used to be known as the web guy and now people call me the solar guy. The thread that weaves those two worlds together is the fact that the former, in its nascency, was not really accepted nor understood deeply, for the impact it would have on changing the way in which we live in the everyday. The same is true for the renewable world. Imagine a conversation with your children, or your friends' children, or a group of young folks who, when asked if they can remember a time without solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, tidal (and the ones to be discovered) just look at you like you're a freaky fossil from the 20th Century - I predict that look will come and sooner than we think.
