And I will second that recommendation. And thank you again Ricky for introducing him to me.
Umm. This is one article on climate change that even some prominent climate scientists are calling alarmist. I hope to get around to reading it myself later today.
However, for nearly all readers, the first line will be correct: it's worse than you think it is.
