Just getting started.

A good place to begin. This is a little thing I wrote to lighten up the subject. Enjoy.
Bruce and Marvin
a dinosaurs tale

Bruce, a Brachiosaurus (A huge, long-necked, plant-eating dinosaur with a giraffe-like stance) and Marvin, a Mamenchisaurus (The dinosaur with the longest neck - a plant-eating giant from China) were discussing the cold weather they were experiencing lately. It seems that Bruce had heard about the new dinosaur religion, climate change. As they were learning, dinosaurs love to learn, weather is to climate change as one second is to one day.

Weather to dinosaurs is for casual conversation just to fill up their spare time as dinosaurs don’t have jobs. Climate change is something new and exciting to fret over, after all you can’t really do anything about it but it is so much fun because it is fashionable. Albert, an Apatosaurus (A huge, long-necked, whip-tailed plant-eating dinosaur; it used to be known as Brontosaurus) says it is our duty to do something. If all the other dinosaurs adore him and make him rich, that would be ok to.

Bruce was explaining to Marvin about their favorite food, glossopteris, an early ancestor of broccoli, causing dinosaur flatulence. Nobody much worried about dinosaur flatulence in those days as it was impolite to discuss and was no fun at all. If they all continued to consume ever increasing quantities of glossopteris the flatulence produced would cause dangerous climate change and they would all die or evolve into birds.
