The British Columbia hamlet of New Denver sits in the shadow of the Selkirks, alongside beautiful Slocan Lake. But its heritage is where Canadians of Japanese ancestry were interned during World War II.
Among them was a little boy who grew up to be a notable geneticist and his countrys leading environmental activist On a hiking trip some years back, I ran into David Suzuki in New Denver. He was introducing teenage offspring to a place of memories.
David Suzuki is new ninety years old. The renowned geneticist he studied the fruit fly has grown increasingly pessimistic about the fate of the Earth. He speaks to the climate extremes afflicting his country and ours and we ought to hear him out.
On global warming, Suzuki is the ultimate pessimist. He subscribes to the notion of a tipping point from which we have damaged the planet beyond repair.

(102,597 posts)For decades myself and it always seem that when we start making progress some fucking shitneck gets elected and not only fuck it all up but takes us backward so that we have to work harder to get back to where we were. And then we find that we can't recover that progress.
