As the climate worsens we feel very bad for the new or soon to be mothers. I'm a father and my adult children have decidedly found that having children in such difficult and challenging weather /climate is not in the cards for them.

No matter how much truly renewable energies we think we are producing, until we understand and deal with the dynamics going on for now 70 years in the subarctic regions of the Northern hemisphere, we will never, never get ahead of the worsening and emergent climate catastrophey.

I would only hope that Katherine will put a bit more energy into this issue, afterall katherine in a scientist and to ignore the sensitive zones, aka arctic and sub-arctic is not what shouldbe happening. Science knows that these regions are warming 4-5 times faster than anywhere else

The late oceanographer Hans Neu from Nova Scotia's Bedford Institute was booted off a damming 3 year research study that Hydro Quebec paid for. Hans ocean data collected along the continental shelf REVEALED a definte warming pattern coming from several outflows of mega hydroelectric dams the flowed into the Labrador Sea. To this day the overflows from the destroyed rivers, now sea-sized impoundents, continue to heat the Northern oceans
