Deep in numb confusion that dulls the senses and creates quivers of fear for the sanity of the world and the civilized folk out in it, and during another white night of incredulity, with curdled brain, I toss and turn from hot to cool pillow to hot again.

Sunday, November 24, 2024, 5-6 PM To avert the worst impacts of climate change, a transition away from fossil fuels is necessary.
