The No Impact Man global warming primer
In this post, I present a layman’s primer on global warming. But before we begin, I’m so excited and full of thanks for the fact that I have received more than 2 x 350 = 700 emails of support for my coming visit to Congressman’s Nadler (click here to help me reach my goal of […]
