Time Magazine: Be Worried, Be Very Worried

[Guest guest]

Hello list,

 

The transit strain is producing alarming headlines, this time about

global warming in a magazine read by millions of people in the English

speaking world:

The editors of Time feel compelled to shout " the end is near " (the

world is at the " tipping point " of environmental catastrophy). Is it

overdone? Perhaps no one really knows, but so far the scientific

evidence has suggested the development will be broadly manageable for

humanity and other passangers on " Lifeship Earth, " but only if

significant changes in the way we live are made. Likely, the editors

of Time want people and their governments to wake up and begin to make

the required changes in their lifestyles.

 

Best regards,

 

C

>Dear C and list. I strongly recommend the just published work by Tim

Flannery " The Weather Makers " as an excellent, non-judgemental work

describing what is going on with global warming. With my best wishes,

Chuck
