To start off today I want to share with you some information that may be of great interest to you or someone you know. Many of you know that my wife Debbie has asthma. For some time now we have been receiving from Sierra Club text messages when the air quality is dangerous for her so she can act accordingly…stay inside and…
You probably didn’t notice that I didn’t send a post last week. We had the grandsons here and that consumed all our attention! In looking over the recent news I didn’t see any single item that I want to highlight this week so I thought I’d update you on a plethora of ones that I regularly bring to your attention. So…
Happy New Year! As we start 2022 I think back a few weeks to my last article of 2021 and reflect on how we started last year and where we ended up. I am reminded that every year progress towards a new future happens more rapidly and dramatically than is expected by common perception. Remember this time next year that I am…
I am going to take some time off with my family so this will be my last post in 2021. I’ll list some recent news at the end, as usual, but I want to reflect and share some thoughts about this past year in order that we grasp how much and how quickly our circumstances have changed, are changing and…

And I know that some, or even many, will think I’m off my rocker for saying this, but it’s not the most critical factor on how quickly and how far we implement changes to our society that will mitigate climate change to allow our civilization to function with some semblance of…
Every week there is so much news that is published about so many of the topics relating to climate change upon which I attempt to keep you abreast. This week is no different. The primary one upon which I will dwell today is very revealing as to why it is so important to keep warming below 1.5 degrees celsius and how the…
Those of you who have been getting and receiving my postings know that I make a lot of predictions based on data but using my premonitions and judgement to forecast what is coming often long before the “experts” will. And when what I have projected comes to pass, I love to say “I told you so!”. Sure, I have an…
Besides my showing you the science of climate change and the actual real world physical consequences of it (i.e. more and stronger hurricanes, more intense storms, melting glaciers, changes in the jet and gulf streams, tropical diseases moving north, flooding, mud slides, drought, fires, etc.) I have tried to alert you to the impact that a warmer climate is having…
