But I was prepared to read another gloom-and-doom account of the bleak, nightmare existence in store for my children and the next generation.

Your excerpt, however, surprised me. While acknowledging the grim challenges, it also discusses Vince's cautious optimism that there are smart, dedicated people around the world putting their heads together to try to come up with some solutions.

You don't hear much about these. Climate change is either dismissed by the right-wing deniers or heralded as the inescapable death of the human race by many on our side of the political spectrum.

Thanks for posting! I look forward to reading the article in its entirety.
