About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
We need to make some serious changes if our planet is going to survive!
The planet will survive no matter what we do. The question is will we?
I think this fault that we have made, by destroying such a beautiful planet, can’t be forgiven!
I also wondering how many civilizations in the universe have such planet?
Why are we humans so blind to see the real worths?
I really hope that nothing will happen, but the whole world is changing even in this very moment and no one knows what is the next step!
I’m a skeptic. Global Warming has become a political issue. Smacks of Chicken Little to me. I don’t dispute that things are warming up, but to lay blame at our feet as the SOLE reason? I see a lot of hysteria and no real solutions. Where are the alternate energy supplies? Where are the practical suggestions? Will you chuck your plastic and silicon filled heated monstrosity into the bin and forgo internet access? Will you stop driving your car?
We recycle our trash. Shut the lights out whenever possible. Carpool to work. Teach our children not to waste food, etc. I am not alone in this. I know many Americans who do the same. How is Global Warming our fault?
No. Too much of this is politically charged and whipped up into a frenzy by the press. Just 30 years ago they taught me in school about the oncoming ice age. Eight years ago everybody was fearing the world’s PCs would stop working at the dawn of the new millennium. The Y2K bug turned out to be overhyped. So didn’t Global Cooling. I think I’ll continue living as green as I’m able and patiently await for the next Media Mania.
One just has to remember the grizzly-polar bear hybrid Jim Martell shot to see the “tip of the iceberg” effects with regards to global warming.
