Beginning of the End?

RECEIVED Wed., Dec. 15, 2010

Louis Black,
    Re: “Page Two,” Dec. 10: I love your pragmatic/left viewpoint, but you fail to grasp what is different this time. Sure, every other apocalyptic prediction has been wrong, except the one that is happening now before our eyes! Climate catastrophe is happening, ask any biologist. Species are behaving in ways consistent with a warming climate. Those who predicted many actions (ice melting, etc.) are not only being proved correct; they are shown to be too conservative in their timelines. The present political climate in the U.S., China, England, and Australia pretty much precludes any meaningful action. If this isn't the beginning of the end …. Have a nice day!
