climate chaos inevitable

Scary article from Mark Lynas in yesterdays Guardian:

Climate chaos is inevitable. We can only avert oblivion

Sometimes we need to think the unthinkable, particularly when dealing with a problem as dangerous as climate change – there is no room for dogma when considering the future habitability of our planet …

…. the question now is whether humanity can summon up the courage and foresight to save itself, or whether business as usual – on climate policy as much as economics – will condemn us all to climatic oblivion.

Voom or Veggie ?

Sounds like it was fun at the climate-change conference at Yale University on Friday when California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Rajendra K. Pachauri, the head of the Nobel prize-winning Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, squared up on just how to tackle global warming.

Voom and technology says Arnie, Veggie and lifestyle change says Rajendra.

Just about sums it up – I hear the same arguments and dicussions in most sustainability events.  Not quite in the style of how Arnie put it though “environmentalists were no fun, like prohibitionists at a fraternity party”
