When thousands of activists descend on Manhattan this Sunday
for the People's Climate March, faith-based groups will be among them.
Dozens of religious organizations and churches have signed up to join in
demanding action to fight global warming. But as the Rev. Dr. Carroll

On Sept. 21,
two days before the UN Climate Summit, what's being billed as a
historic demonstration of support for action on global warming will take
place in the streets of New York. Organizers expect over 100,000
participants to turn out for the People's Climate March, elevating it to
the level of events surrounding the civil rights and anti-war movements
of an earlier era.

The
German energy transition, or Energiewende, has been covered
sporadically by the U.S. media, often with little regard for nuance,
despite the fact that the German project to move from carbon and
nuclear-based energy to renewables is the most ambitious undertaking of
its kind on the planet. A front-page article in Sunday's New York Times is an example of the kind of quality reporting that has been all too rare.
