This year (2012) more than ever I am encouraged by all the positive emails that I’ve received from around the globe – thank you. I firmly believe that our species has begun to reunite economics and ecology for a sustainable future.
Here are just a few examples of environmental triumphs that we can all celebrate from 2012:
This year Professor Matt King of the University of Tasmania revealed that 190 million metric tons of ice a day have been melting from Antarctica – that’s the equivalent of 1.5 million blue whales in volume a day – or more than a half a billion blue whales worth of ice turning to water a year. In fact, both Antarctica and the Arctic are warming at least two times faster than the rest of the globe.
