I received a very interesting link that I thought might also be interesting to folks in this thread. The link is to a set of notes, not really prepared for publication, by Laurie Garrett, prize-winning author and science writer for Newsday. The link is to
Garrett's notes from the recent WEF in Davos, Switzerland. They were posted to a list by Adam Davis, Director, EPRIsolutions Environment Division.

Garrett's notes are just that and don't really include a point of view or proposal for any action. For that reason, and because of the reputation of Ms. Garrett, I thought folks here might like to add her observations to their own background files.
