Good words

If only we let the stars mirror back to us the big picture of the universe and the tiny precious speck of it we inhabit that we call Earth, maybe we will be given the humility and insight to love and appreciate all life and living forms wherever our journeys take us.

— Terry Riley

Global ethics of Climate Change

This slide from Dr. Jonathan Patz, lead author of the IPCC, illustrated the ethics of climate change. It redraws the global map based on who generates pollution – you can see how ‘fat’ the U.S. carbon footprint looks relative to Africa. The lower map of the globe illustrates which countries are suffering the most climate change related deaths. The diagram earned Patz an invitation to talk about the ethics of climate related consumption with the Dalai Lama.
