farewell to sea ice

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2019.09.07

Well, I guess within another couple of years there won't be ice in the Arctic ocean year round. Have a look at the two photos on the left, about 2/3 of the way down this page. This year there was less than 5% of the normal four-year-old+ permanent sea ice that there was only in '88.

You have to choose between trusting to the natural stability of gold and the natural stability of the honesty and intelligence of the members of the Government. And, with due respect for these gentlemen, I advise you, as long as the Capitalist system lasts, to vote for gold.

—George Bernard Shaw
