Fossil Fuels and Earth's Climate
In early 2007, I co-founded the Carbon Tax Center, with attorney Dan Rosenblum. The CTC Web site is the repository of much of
my recent writing on climate and energy, as well as your best source for data, perspective and advocacy on carbon pricing. Content is updated continually.
Also, since mid-2006 I've been blogging on climate, energy and transportation on the environmental
blog Grist. For a listing of my three dozen pieces on that site, go
