Somewhat on the same topic:
I'm wondering if any of you are concerned about how we humans have failed to address the most serious environmental threat we have ever had to confront?
Over the past year, I have written three essays on the global warming crisis. If any of you would like to see any of them let me know and I will send you copies.
Paul Ruggles.
