There Are Ways to Avoid the Disaster

Steve Bates over at Yellow Doggerel Democrat highlights an article published in the UK and available on Common Dreams.

Drastic Action on Climate Change is Needed Now - and Here's the Plan -- George Monbiot reviews Nicholas Stern's dramatic assessment of what we must do to avoid catastrophic consequences to civilized life in the coming century. It's not going to be easy... but it appears we have no choice. The only rational disagreements now are not over "whether" but over "when" and "how much." Monbiot examines the realities and proposes some goals... and some means... by which catastrophe may be avoided.
