COFFEE BREAK 80

+ updated at 12:05pm EST

+ I’m preaching this Sunday at "Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Little Falls NY.

+ The Environmental working Group offers “Climate Change Will Cost Farmers Far More Than a Climate Bill." Excerpts:

"A more careful examination of the facts shows that climate change itself, not climate legislation, is the real threat to American agriculture, and that climate-induced crop losses will cost US taxpayers and farmers far more than could ever be caused by the ACES bill."

"Instead of wringing our hands about the negligible costs of a climate bill, Congress should be very worried about how much climate change will cost farmers, our food supply, and the environment."

+ SFGate offers "The menace of the public option" by M.C. Blakeman. I found this provocative and humorous (but also disheartening) article thanks to my friends in the Orange County Progressive Christians Yahoo! Group.
