...part of the Kyoto deal, the E.U. agreed to lower greenhouse gas emission levels by 8% below 1990 levels between 2008 and 2012. But legislation alone won't bring emissions down: E.U. levels crept up in 2001 for the second straight year, and most member states are forecast to miss the Kyoto targets.

Harvard has an amazing theater program and opportunities in the arts, and, with Athena, we?...
...what they are currently writing and performing. It’s both frustrating and affirming to know that people all over the world and from all different eras have had the same ideas you’ve had or are thinking the same things. I’ll really miss being around all of this, where so many ideas just float around...
