JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: A FEW WORDS ABOUT THE MOST UNUSUAL AND INTERESTING ARTICLE ON CLIMATE CHANGE I'VE EVER READ

COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE BY CHRIS HEDGES IN TRUTHDIG



“Saying Goodbye to Planet Earth”

The most interesting article I've seen on climate change.

Quite a different approach.

No sense of climate religiosity or mumbo-jumbo.

Just a genuinely long-term view from a scientific voice, looking at the distant past and at other worlds.

I love the introductory perspective of the mere 10,000 years for everything to happen that has happened as far as humanity goes.

It's such a brief, brief time span.
