We do know, thanks to Jim Hansen and many others, that 350 PPM (parts per million) is the most carbon we should in the recipe for air. We now have 387 and rising. This “too muchness” reflects our collective incapacity to know how much is …
I’ve opened a “tele-class school” and you’re invited. It’s for people who want to ground the Your Money or Your Life approach in any part of their lives where it all get’s too much: over-busy, over-spending, over-eating, over-worrying, over-committed and over-whelmed. There are 2 free …
