On April 15, 2011, the indigenous Purepecha community of Cheran, Michoacan, Mexico, rebelled against organized crime, the logging industry, and corrupt government agencies. They used sticks, rocks, and bottle rockets to resist their "narco-government" that pillaged sacred forests.

Since then, Cheran has ousted all political parties and local/state police, seizing offices, weapons, and vehicles. The community re-established traditional self-governance, featuring a council of elders, a community police ("ronda"), and its "Guarda Bosques" (Forest Keepers) defense team.

Studies indicating historical CO2 levels lag behind temperature have merit, confirms Peter Hildebrand, Director of Earth Science at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. Responding to a question on Twitter, Hildebrand explained that in the pre-industrial age, temperature changes drove CO2 levels; a warmer climate caused the biosphere to emit more CO2.

However, in the post-industrial era, this dynamic has reversed. Now, increasing atmospheric CO2 is leading to higher temperatures, indicating a fundamental shift in the physical-biological processes. For more information, visit Ask A Climate Scientist.
