I wrote this blog on Wednesday: immediately following the election, a full week after Sandy (I live in NYC – we’ve been trying to fix some of the damage) and in the middle of a new Northeaster that was dumping … Continue reading →

Global Warming and Energy Independence

Posted on November 5, 2012 by climatechangefork

I have no idea who will win the presidential election tomorrow. The fact is that climate change went almost unmentioned in both campaigns, and was not discussed at all in any of the three presidential debates. Some blame the moderators … Continue reading →

The Limit to Growth – The Two Shades

Posted on October 29, 2012 by climatechangefork

I was scanning the internet, trying to find other advocates for what I have recently started to call the 4th Industrial Revolution (October 22) — a revolution that will be fueled by sustainable energy sources, replacing the ones that pollute … Continue reading →

Limit to Growth – Again?

Posted on October 22, 2012 by climatechangefork

The reason that I am writing this series of blogs is to try to do whatever I can to prevent what I previously called a “Self Inflicted Genocide” (April 22); one, which in my opinion, and that of many others, … Continue reading →

A Voice From the Inside of a Feeding Transition

Posted on October 15, 2012 by climatechangefork

In the last few blogs (September 24 – October 8), I have tried to make the case that we can aim for a reasonable global strategy based on the IPCC SRES B1 scenario. This calls for limiting anthropogenic changes to … Continue reading →

Mañana

Posted on October 8, 2012 by climatechangefork

Mañana is a common expression (derived from Spanish but used much more generally) that translates as tomorrow or in the indeterminate future. It is also the common denominator of my “Three Shades of Deniers” (September 3 blog) that I have … Continue reading →

Cost Effectiveness

Posted on October 1, 2012 by climatechangefork

In the previous blog (September 24) I outlined a “victory,” based on IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) projections, which will allow us to stabilize the composition of the atmosphere at levels that adaptation will be able to handle. I … Continue reading →

Declaration of Victory and Exit Strategy

Posted on September 24, 2012 by climatechangefork

The title of my previous blog was “Declaration of War.” I wrote: In the next few blogs I will try to expand this notion to include non-military action, with a specific focus on climate change. My objective is to look into … Continue reading →

Declaration of War

Posted on September 17, 2012 by climatechangefork

“After the end of [the] Persian Gulf War in 1991, Colin Powell, then chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, outlined his vision for efficient and decisive military action.” This vision is now known as the Powell Doctrine. The last condition … Continue reading →

The Conventions

Posted on September 10, 2012 by climatechangefork

I watched both the Republican and Democratic conventions. I was listening for information about where the parties and the candidates stand on the issue of climate change. In advance of the conventions, the candidates did, in fact, provide written responses … Continue reading →
