12、ce about global warming is incomplete, that it“s OK to keep pouring fumes into the air until we know for sure. This is a dangerous game: by the 100 percent of the evidence is in, it may be too late. With the risks obvious and growing, a prudent people would take out an insurance policy now. Fortunat
13、ely, the White House is starting to pay attention. But it“s obvious that a majority of the president“s advisers still don“t take global warming seriously. Instead of a plan of action, they continue to press for more researcha classic ease of “paralysis by analysis“. To serve as responsible stewards
14、of the planet, we must press forward on deeper atmospheric and oceanic research. But research alone is inadequate.

Shielded by third-party payers from the cost of our care, we demand everything that can possibly be done for us, even if it“s useless. The mo

Physicians-frustrated by their in- ability to cure the disease and fearing loss of hope in the patientoo often offer aggressive treatment far be- yond what is scientifically justified. In 1950, the U.S. spent $12.7 billion on health care. In 2002, the co
