This post makes the argument that changing the conversation about integral warming — a conversation that has become politically charged — into a conversation about energy conservation, which will not cause immediate and sometimes hostile reactions that speaking about climate change does, is a more effective strategy to pursue for those concerned about climate change.

Their advice: stop talking about global warming and change the conversation to energy conservation.
