Sites of the week:
dieoff.com Everything you wanted to know but were afraid to ask about our status on the planet. The site is an amazing collection of ALL the key papers. If you read all the papers on this site you would know as much as I do about our planetary status and future. Be warned: the site is not optimistic, in fact it is pretty gruesome in its frankness! But as far as I can tell it is correct!
