You can find it here. Neue Zürcher Zeitung asked writers from zones far and wide for first-hand accounts of how global warming is affecting them.
From the article...
"Suddenly the temperature dropped - three hundred degrees in one hour, a local record! It was so lovely, I couldn't resist putting my work aside and donning special clothing purchased from NASA and taking a stroll through this "winter wonderland." It was gorgeous: the neighbourhood cats, converted to ice-cats in mid-stride, four pert little robins literally frozen to death on a clothesline, little beaks open in mid-peep."

I love George Saunders. He has a new book coming out soon, The Braindead Megaphone, which is supposed to include his essays on the effects of mass media. It's supposed to be awesome.
He's amazing. And, if you haven't read "The Brief and Frightening Reign of Phil" I highly recommend it. Weird, yes, but utterly absorbing and, honestly, rather frightening.
