"Our specific conclusions are that if the world were to go past the point of an increase above pre-industrial temperatures greater than 2 to 2.5 degrees Celsius, we would be in a regime where the danger of intolerable and unmanageable impacts on well-being would rise very rapidly." (John Holdren, Harvard University: Teresa and John Heinz Professor of Environmental Policy and director of the Science, Technology, and Public Policy Program. Holdren was a member of a team of U.N.-directed scientists that recently issued a report on global warming.)
When my husband eats my world-famous bean soup, I, too, experience a regime where the danger of intolerable and unmanageable impacts on my well-being rises very rapidly.
I'll be in Tuscany and Sicily for the next three weeks. We never go anywhere without my husband's Sleek Black Mistress, and he lets me touch her, so my posts will not only continue, they'll take on a delightful international flavor. After I get the air travel rants out of the way. Ciao!
