global warming and daredevilry
Newsbit: Evel Knievel is dead. Not from a stunt, either. I’ve never been hugely into him, but the guy had some guts, and was entertaining. May he rest, etc.
And a video, in which a science teacher proposes a pretty decent way to think about the global warming debate (and where you personally might stand regarding the issue) by approaching it as a risk-management problem. At the end of the video there’s reference to an “expansion pack” – a video cataloguing sources for finding out more about the issues involved. I haven’t watched that one yet, but the one below is worth even the ten long minutes it runs. Especially since the decision-making process this guy describes is applicable to many other areas of life.
