This is looking south over the Strait of Juan de Fuca in the late after noon. The sun is behind the camera. Why are the rays converging toward the horizon?

New Yorker articles on climate change

The New Yorker magazine published a series of articles on climate change earlier this year. They are now on line and provide excellent reading. Along with some recent articles in the Scientific American, which are not on line, these provide enough information to show that a) humans are indeed affecting the climate, and that b) it is reasonable to do something about it, even though it is probably true that severe effects in the next couple of generations are likely to be unavoidable.
