ETHICS AND CLIMATE CHANGE
Earth has survived glacial ages and periods of excessive warmth. Through it all the total amount of water has remained constant while it changes form as necessary. Amazing? Actually not, because it is the system. We just have to accept it for what it is, and don’t try to change it (because we can’t).

I obviously was not going to be best engineer. A friendly Dean kept me in school by pointing out that I didn’t think like an engineer. I was…

There are a million years of history during which there have been glacial periods separated by interglacial periods. Since only 11,000 years have passed since the last Ice Age, scientists cannot be certain that we are indeed living in a post-glacial Holocene epoch instead of an interglacial period of the Pleistocene and thus due for…
