I don't mean to imply that we are in imminent danger of being wiped off the face of the earth; at least, not on account of global warming. But climate change does confront us with profound new realities. We face these new realities as a nation, as members of the world community, as consumers, as producers, and as investors.

But there will be a toll on our environment and on our economy, and the toll will rise higher with each new generation. ~Eileen Claussen
