The Grist: "Cancun: politics vs. science"

The Climate Desk in The Grist: Cancun: politics vs. science

You have to read the impassioned letter from Steven Earl Salmony, dated 2 Dec., 2010!

Quotes: "In the course of a single lifetime, human beings will have done so much irreparable damage to something millions of years in the making, something we believe we are preserving."

"For me, it is impossible to believe that a species so wondrous as Homo sapiens will not find a way to continue rather than to induce its own extinction as we appear to be doing now. Somehow the miracle of life as we know it, with all its beauty and biodiversity, has to be preserved. At least we have to try, whatever the odds."
