   A sad day. The Canadian gov't, despite its brave words about
   decarbonisation, to-day approved the massive Baie du Nord offshore
   development for our East Coast.

   Canada is one of the best-educated nations in the world. If we can't
   get it together, what hope is there?

   Dear Gene,
   Although it is increasingly difficult to remain optimistic, the
   takeaway message should be clear. The sooner we can muster the
   political will to reduce atmospheric CO2 the better. The debate should
   have ended decades ago, but that is no excuse for complacency and/or
   inaction.

   Thanks Austin, I have become so used to broken promises by governmens
   and businesses that it just bounces off. I recall many climate change
   authors claiming that if all sources of Co2 were stopped today it would
   take about half a century for Co2 levels to drop to pre-industrial
   levels. Reducing present levels in 8-years is not realistic. Gene
