It's raining, and now I have something to read. Thanks Eastbay.

And, although a DA2 set in northern Siberia is being researched, a trip to the northern reaches of Siberia is difficult, time consuming and expensive. Oh, sure, I can always fly to the various Siberian cities, but it then requires a grinding journey overland to reach the extreme locations where methane is gurgling out. And that would be well beyond what my body, mind, schedule and budget can conquer. But I may do it anyhow. Interesting, even serendipitous, that you suggested this.

It's always great to see the door crack open for progress on an issue when the parties involved start to recognize a "win-win" solution. Such a tipping-point moment is coming into view in the campaign to halt the widespread, devastating deforestation currently resulting from the growing world consumption of palm oil. It's a classic case of science and transparency shining the way forward.
The problem is far from solved, but in a major development, several large palm-oil purchasers, including Kellogg's and Hershey's, have recently pledged to buy only deforestation-free palm oil for their products. Two of the world's largest palm oil suppliers — Wilmar and Golden Agri-Resources — have made similar commitments for the palm oil they sell. Now pressure is mounting on some of the remaining hold-outs — like Procter & Gamble, Pepsi and McDonald's — to follow suit and do the right thing for the planet.
