An Interesting Read

I enjoy reading the New York Times on-line. Thanks to my son's gift of Times Select, I am able to read all the editorials. Thomas Friedman is one of my favorite writers. Today, he says that the color of the year is green as the general public is finally realizing the environmental/energy challenge we face. He concludes his column with these words:

There’s no time to lose. “People see an endangered species every day now when they look in the mirror,” said the environmentalist Rob Watson. “It is not about the whales anymore.”
