...lite scientists could simply solve climate change on their own, public misunderstanding wouldn't be such a problem. But they can't. Reducing carbon emissions sharply will require all 6.5 billion (and growing) of us on the planet to hugely change the way we use energy and travel. We'll also need to change the way we vote, rewarding politicians willing to make the tough choices on climate. Instead of a new Manhattan Project - the metaphor often used for global warming - Sterman believes that what is needed is closer to a new civil rights movement, a large-scale campaign that...

The stage, decorated with a plethora of maps from all over the world and suitcases of all shapes and sizes to emphasize the themes of travel and human interconnection, was constantly flooded with action. So as to imitate real life, there were normally several actors on stage who were doing something completely unrelated to the central action of the moment. Although this made the plot difficult to follow, it added greatly to the energy and swift action of the play...
Industry Downturn. The National Business Travel Association found in a recent survey that corporate travel managers are eliminating all non-essential travel. No surprise, considering the tanking economy and rising airline fares; costs of domestic business trips rose $140 to $175 per person over last year, and international trips went up $315 to $400. Employees who travel are even being asked to stay the weekend, returning on Sunday, so T&E can book lower-fare tickets. Next thing you know, they'll start charging you for blankets...
