“ ...and breathe, inhale, exhale, and love
all seems to ooze the stress that greed has carved in us
surely our species should be meek
before our motherearth’s volcanoes
storms and huracanes
tornadoes, floods and tremors
and there we b secreting poisons for all leggeds, wingeds,
fish and even trees…”

“...what for the swimming and the sea, see
there b no shore or beach that anyone
can reach
and breathe, inhale, exhale, and love
all seems to ooze the stress that greed has carved in us
surely our species should be meek
before our motherearth’s volcanoes...”

“I believe, however, that a more prudent attitude would be to heed the rise in atmospheric CO2 concentration as serious unless proven to be benign. If scientists would make clear to the public the wisdom of this cautious approach, people would demand to be better informed about what scientists already know. The collective talent and wisdom of a species self-named Homo sapiens might then be better directed toward the issue of global warming.”

“Broadly speaking, climatic change is caused by exchanges of energy, momentum, and chemicals between the atmosphere, the ocean, and land surfaces. Oceanic and atmospheric circulation, turbulent mixing, photochemistry, and radiative transfer are all involved. These processes are mainly natural but some, at least, are susceptible to human influence. Processes that involve the so-called greenhouse gases are probably the most critical candidates.”

“...For me, this calls into question what solidarity truly is: Is it a blurring of our experiences and our unique conditions for the sake of peace, or is it standing together in the muck of our differences and declaring that we refuse to be divided by the people who are responsible for our collective misery?”
