667 per centimeter : climate science, quantitative biology, statistics, and energy policy 
Harrison Ford needs to get a grip, jump in one of his planes and go buy a cheeseburger.
In contrast to pathetic simple-minds who sit around complaining about how ugly wind turbines and solar arrays look, at least both Harrison Ford and Mike Bloomberg are doing something. Sure, that entails flying about. But, well, even the residents of so-called environmentally conscious and progressive Massachusetts are proving to be hypocrites on the point. And, in comparison with their greenhouse gases, the Ford or Bloomberg flights are completely negligible.
Mind the rules of the neighborhood, by the way. I’m not as kind as Climate Crocks. Think more like Tamino.
