» Avoiding Catastrophe

 

This week’s issue will be unlike any past SNS issue. It is coming to you in multimedia form: text here, video online, DVDs if you need them, action steps if you’re interested.

 

Last week’s Special Letter by Randy Foutch, and my introduction referring to the FiRe 2010 CTO Climate Challenge held this May, led to requests by many of our members to see the actual solution set, put forward by the CTO Advisory Board, regarding how to avoid catastrophic climate change. You said you wanted the answers, so, this week, we’re providing them.

 

Before we start, however, I will recap the problem and solution genesis for those who did not read last week’s issue. Below is a truncated version of the opening.
