Museum Exhibit Focuses On Global Warming, How To Slow It Down -- Courant.com
"Climate Change: The Threat to Life and a New Energy Future," opens Saturday in New York, addressing a complex issue that already is proving difficult to resolve because it will mean substantive changes in how individuals and institutions function.
"Presenting the latest information about what climate change is, what causes it, and alternative energy options, the exhibition makes clear both that there is no single solution for addressing this imperative issue and that a combination of individual and society actions are necessary to and can successfully mitigate it," said Ellen V. Futter, the museum president.
Global warming skeptics? Not here. Ninety percent of the scientists involved in climate change research are convinced man-influenced global warming is real, Futter noted, and the museum doesn't equivocate for a moment in insisting that societies must reduce carbon dioxide emissions substantially in coming years to avoid serious impacts, from dramatic sea level rise, to more violent storms, to the severe alteration of worldwide ecosystems.

The exhibit listed a number of important ways to reduce global warming but failed to mention that the ethanol mandate should be REDUCED because it was having the opposite effect as originally planned. See
