You can tell that there’s a cultural shift happening, when “six degrees” no longer means “six degrees of separation” but “six degrees of global warming.” Here’s a new book out with that title, by science writer Mark Lynas, on the consequences of rising temperatures. Lynas is also a 2006 National Geographic Emerging Explorer.

I just surfed my way here from the Costa Rica HQ blog, and thought I’d drop in and let you know what a great blog you have here! I absolutely love the layout. Very original and the posts are even better.
As far as the book goes, I just find it shameful that a ghost written book by Glenn Beck, who knows nothing about global warming, can be #1 on the NY Times Best Seller List. And a book like this written by a credible author with hard evidence couldn’t get enough publicity if it tried.
