In the Arctic, things are already getting freaky. Temperatures have warmed three times faster than the global average.

The Arctic is a place that historically, during all preceding human history, has largely been an icy realm with an impact on ocean currents. That, in turn, influences the temperature of the planet. The Arctic is now vulnerable because of the excess carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, with a rate of melting that is stunning.

The Arctic is among the least understood places on the planet; however, we do know that its landscape is changing and evolving as quickly as cell phones and the Internet.

Antarctica is otherworldly, like nothing I've ever seen before. Stark, cold, beautiful desolation.

I haven't been to Tasmania. I haven't been to the South Pole, and I haven't been to the North Pole. I want to see the polar bear migration before there are no polar bears. I want to see Glacier National Park before the glacier melts.

I kinda like Florida. It's hot as hell, but we moved to Tallahassee, which is so close to Georgia. It really wasn't Florida the way people think of Florida. It wasn't south Florida. But you could still easily drive to Panama City Beach and get a little bit of Redneck Riviera if you want that. Get some airbrushed T-shirts on, and you're done.

I like it in Manchester. I thought it was going to be much colder, but it is not too bad. And my wife and son are happy here, too.

I get cold really quickly, but I don't care. I like weather. I never understand why people move someplace so that they can avoid weather.

I hear from my Inuit and Yupik relatives up north that everything has changed. It's so hot; there is not enough winter. Animals are confused. Ice is melting.

I came from Canada, where it's freezing cold for seven months out of the year.
