SF considering ways to curb plastic water bottles

Environmental groups are supportive of efforts to wean San Franciscans from plastic water bottles.

"San Francisco has among the best drinking water in country. It's ridiculous that people would go out and spend their now very limited dollars to buy bottled water," said Mae Wu, an attorney with the Natural Resources Defense Council...

Chris Hogan, an International Bottled Water Association spokesman, said his industry contributes a small fraction of worldwide energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. He welcomed efforts to encourage drinking tap water, but said they don't require demonizing bottled water.

"When you make the argument to discourage people from drinking bottled water, you are removing the healthiest option when it comes to choosing a bottled beverage," Hogan said.

Cold War Nuclear Weapons Tests Could Help Scientists In Fight Against Global Warming
Without climate models, scientists and political leaders would not have understood the full extent of nuclear weapons' power to annihilate not only human beings, but other species as well.
Allegedly heroic scientists have allegedly been fighting global warming for decades now. Is there any measurable change in the climate that we have now, versus the climate we'd have if no time or money was ever spent on the fight against global warming?
