The year of living flightlessly?
Today's the second anniversary of the ratification of the Kyoto Protocol, and we're finally witnessing a race to the top among West Coast leaders: who'll implement a more aggressive response to global warming?
I'm proud of our region and bullish on our prospects, for a bunch of good and well-considered reasons.
But there's one not-so-good reason that I want to mention. In the grand scheme of things, it's trivial. Still, it's illustrative of what's possible on a much broader scale and of one of the key dilemmas we face.
