...What Gore will not say and what the Administration will not admit is that keeping companies from being polluters is not a question of levying fines. Very few corporations are polluters because they are out-and-out enemies of clear water, clean air, intact ozone, or of keeping the polar ice cap in place.

Its higher elevation would put it out of reach of coastal meltwater, keeping its ice cover primarily intact. What's more, even within the areas of the WAIS that lie below sea level, there are localized spots that poke above it, and these too would be relatively safe. Factoring in these and other mitigators, Bamber's team reran the computer models and came up with their newer, slightly...

Regardless, Cutié's Miami Catholic friend notes that the priest and the church both need to recognize that "there's another human being involved in this, the woman in the pictures, and if they're not sensitive to her as well, they're looking at double the scandal...
