Glaciers are disappearing from Mt. Kilimanjaro. Tuvaluans are watching their island drown. And polar bear populations are declining in Churchill. It may be easy to dismiss these as tall tales. But this team of reporters scattered in eight places around the globe listens to people describe the very real effects of global warming in their everyday lives. Rosita Ramos tells of the vanishing snows on the Cotacachi volcano in Equador. Uentabo MacKenzie laments his beloved childhood home in the Republic of Kiribati, which is eroding before his eyes. Ismail Hossein wonders how he'll be able to grow vegetables with the changing seasons and constant floods in Bangladesh. Travel to where global warming is happening now, and see for yourself.
