...Back Bay" on the off-shore wind farm proposed for the Atlantic Ocean near Cape Cod, Mass. [SCIENCE, Sept. 30], the typical shortsighted vision of corporate America is once more on display. The former CEO of Phelps Dodge Corp., a massive copper-mining company, is concerned because his view of the bay may be tarnished by the presence of an environmentally sound, renewable source of energy. And this comes from a man whose wealth was built in part on a nonrenewable resource, the extraction of which has ruined beautiful landscapes across the globe! It's clear to me why corporate...

But office spaces are generally off the living area," says Peter Duxbury of Duxbury Architects in Los Altos, Calif...
...headed for port through the midwinter dusk, there was little about the M.V. Mecca that stood out from the other boats plying the waters off southern Bangladesh. Portworkers and fishermen noted the same squat deckhouse and plump hold that for centuries have sheltered fishermen from the cyclones of the Bay of Bengal. The Mecca had the usual rusted rigging and smoke-blackened stern. And the crew too was like most others working off Chittagong: pure Rohingyas?stocky Muslim refugees from western Burma. Only the thick salt marks high on the Mecca's bow hinted that it was ending a voyage...
