The aim of this website

Is to explore what an individual can do to make a difference. I am absolutely convinced that Global Warming is in progress and that we must do all in our power to reverse the trend. Contact me by commenting on my posts.

Actions that can be taken at five levels: personal, local, state, national and international.

JOAD is back on track

Now I can relax about getting broadband I have caught up on a few things.

I have sent out my JOAD Report No. 2
(The Joad Concept is described in an earlier post)

It includes a spreadsheet containing 40 book titles. I am inserting an ad for one of them here.

I have always admired the writings of George Monbiot.

I would love to get to the stage where JOAD books could be bought several at a time to save freight costs.

“This book is a brilliant and terrifying critique of the crisis of human-induced climate change, and the prospects of stabilizing temperatures before catastrophic runaway warming ensues. George Monbiot brushes aside our rationalizations to maintain the status quo, shallow targets and mechanisms, and the empty promises of political rhetoric and corporate PR spin, to examine the real opportunities and what has to be done to achieve up to 90 percent reductions in greenhouse gas emissions by the industrialized nations.”
