- Whatever else this election was, it appears to be foreboding for Sustainability, whether it is national climate policy, state level climate action, or a deep seated antipathy for the EPA, though some saw a silver lining.
- Though I guess if our politicians are not going to do anything, maybe we can learn how to resolve our climate challenges from aliens.
- Michael Levi has a good point that talking about the cost of “ideal” climate policies is not very relevant because these only will be implemented in economist’s models, never in the real world.
- A moral argument for renewable energy.
- Ensuring honest and accurate “green” labeling is a vital role that governments can play as is demonstrated by the monster fine be levied by the US on Korean carmakers for misstating their cars’ mileage.
- Sustainability Science is Puzzling. My take: the role of Sustainability professionals should be to look at the whole picture on the puzzle box and not just a piece or two-that is the role of disciplines.

Aaron and Erin. Congratulations on your new web page. Sorry, I had not have a chance to look at it. Very interesting information. Without any doubt our country (El Salvador) is still in “pañales” (baby cloth) to achieve sustainability in all areas, but particularly in agriculture and environment. Farmers continue applying unsustainable practices like planting in high soil slope, excessive use of agro-chemicals, dangerous pesticides like Paraquat, etc. There is too much to learn in this web page. I am marking in my “favorites” so I can come and read any time I can.
Thanks Rolando. I hope that you find some of it interesting and even useful 🙂
