...easy, points out Zoe Kant, TNC's carbon markets manager and the brains behind the Noel Kempff project: experts are few, locales are remote and most countries lack the technical capacity to run schemes on their own. Some places will be tempted to take shortcuts. "We have to make sure our standards are credible, and we're not just delivering money that ends up in the bank accounts of central governments," says nrdc's Schmidt.

Krugman says, plausibly, that it's not even a question of long run vs. short run: we'll also be better off in the long run if we can escape the effects of this immediate crisis.

And getting recipes off websites like Epicurious and food blogs like Simply Recipes and 101 Cookbooks can leave you with a haphazard pile of printouts. The solution? Handheld devices not only let you browse hundreds of recipes on the go but also create electronic shopping lists you can easily tote to the store. And if perchance your handheld falls into the cookie batter (as mine did), you can wipe it clean...
