Al Gore: We're at the "Turning Point"
Al Gore’s recent article in Rolling Stone magazine (June 18, 2014) certainly provides a turning point away from any who despair that we’ve passed the point of no return for Earth’s inhabitability. Does he also correctly diagnose that the turning point he sees will get us into a revised equilibrium with the planet sometime in the doable future? That’s the question I’m asking myself as I delight in all the informative positives Gore is seeing (1) in sustainable technologies, (2) in businesses running toward green strategies, (3) in economics searching for alternatives to capitalism, and (4) in the politics of nations tweaking their policies.
