Great article. It made me realize my bike commute in Boston really isn't so bad. Also made me think it's very important when new lanes/paths are added to make a big fuss over them and get people using them before they lose their new-pavement velvety ride, so that the same ...

RE: More at stake than polar bears and whales: Not adding to our carbon woes by extracting and then transporting (emitting CO2 all the way) all those fossil fuels DOES amount to taking a bigger picture view of things--Arctic oil exploitation is not our only alternative to Middle Eastern and ...

predicting climate vs. predicting weather: Here's how I understand the "you can't predict tomorrow's weather so how can you predict the next century's" conundrum: the LONGER the timeframe in predicting weather, the better the ratio of signal to noise. Another way to think about it is in terms of coin ...
