labingiA while ago, I wrote my representative, Earl Blumenaur, asking him to support a carbon tax. Though his form letter reply did not address that proposition, it did include this very fine sentiment:
"The challenge of climate change is not just a matter of scientific consensus or political debate. It is a challenge that we must embrace fully as a moral responsibility to fellow creatures that share our planet, to vulnerable human populations who contribute the least to climate change but will suffer the most, and to our children and future generations."
Hear, hear!
