Have to say, writ large, of the ‘traditional print’ outlets in the United States, the Christian Science Monitor has traditionally rated quite high with me.

October 18th, 2010 · Comments Off on Americans Trust Scientists Over Climate Deniers
This guest post from Patriot Daily News Clearinghouse examines the disconnect between the Republican Party leadership and how Americans have confidence in scientists.

October 9th, 2010 · Comments Off on 10/10/10/10/10/10: Where will you be?
A simple question: Where will you be at the 10th second of the 10th minute of the 10th hour of the 10th day of the 10th month of the 10th year? As for me, in a little more than 10 hours, I will be in an attic, adding insulation to cut down power demands. And, […]

The Last Frontier’s Struggle For Our Future: Climate Hero vs Climate Peacock and Climate Zombie
September 29th, 2010 · 1 Comment
“Alaska: The Last Frontier” is so eerily echoing of The Final Frontier. And, as with ever so many episodes of Star Trek: The Final Frontier, The Last Frontier is seeing a struggle that could have life-or-death implications for a planet. At this time, the U.S. Senate is the roadblock between U.S. action (even if inadequate) […]

Nissan’s aggressive Leaf campaign sets an example
September 13th, 2010 · 3 Comments

September 13th, 2010 · 4 Comments
Sadly, with each day, Republican Anti-Science Syndrome suffering is becoming ever more pronounced. While the attacks on science, scientific institutions, and scientific authority go well beyond this, Republican politicians are increasingly divorced from scientific institutions and knowledge in the realm of climate science.

WarrenS has taken on an admirable resolution: to send a letter to the editor (LTE) (or, well, a major politician) every single day, on the critical issues of climate change and energy.
