Storms of My Grandchildren's Opa

Today I came across this essay written by NASA Goddard's and Columbia University Dr. James E. Hansen. He says, "We have tremendous potential for innovation that will be spurred once there is a rising carbon price. New products, more jobs. As the carbon price rises, tipping points will be reached where low-carbon or no-carbon alternatives phase in rapidly, leaving fossil fuels in the ground." Thought provoking. I'm sharing the link to his intriguing webpage (http://www.columbia.edu/~jeh1/), as well as the link to the essay mentioned. (http://www.columbia.edu/~jeh1/mailings/2012/20121213_StormsOfOpa.pdf) Worth a visit. Especially if you care about your children or grandchildren.
