Losing Earth: The Decade We Almost Stopped Climate Change

September 30, 2019September 29, 2019

It matters who’s in charge.  From the New York Times last year:


Editor’s Note
This narrative by Nathaniel Rich is a work of history, addressing the 10-year period from 1979 to 1989: the decisive decade when humankind first came to a broad understanding of the causes and dangers of climate change. Complementing the text is a series of aerial photographs and videos, all shot over the past year by George Steinmetz. With support from the Pulitzer Center, this two-part article is based on 18 months of reporting and well over a hundred interviews. It tracks the efforts of a small group of American scientists, activists and politicians to raise the alarm and stave off catastrophe. It will come as a revelation to many readers — an agonizing revelation — to understand how thoroughly they grasped the problem and how close they came to solving it.




And oh, look!  Borealis Exploration sells Share Assets to Borealis Holdings. A corporate housekeeping non-event that we have 10 years to deal with, as I understand it.  For now, no action required.
