Our first grandson, Preston, was born yesterday. I arrived in Minneapolis today to say hello. On the way down I heard a Minnesota Public Radio interview with polar explorer and Minnesota native Will Steger. The interview mainly addressed global warming and the effects that are visible in the arctic. Mr. Steger described his foundation and the educational web site Global Warming 101. I took a look at the site and found that the interview was available on the front page (at least when this was written). Steger emphasizes the role of education and our need to seriously consider the state of the world we will pass on to future generations. Not a bad message for today.
