Past the Point of No Return

By James Hoggan

Brace yourself and check out our colleague Ross Gelbspan’s blog today, where he has picked up a U.K. story about James Lovelock, the scientist and green guru who conceived the notion of Gaia. In it, Lovelock says that we have already done too much damage to the climate system to correct in time.

It’s a bleak, demotivating view, but absent the option to abandon ship, I think it points to a need for us all to redouble our efforts at bailing.
