Now the SDCA course is over (and your grades have been processed and hopefully on their way to you!) I'd like to invite you to continue to be part of this blog. If you are interested, simply add a comment to this message by Saturday August 14 and I will keep your name on the list. If you do not want to continue, simply ignore this post and I will delete your name on the aforementioned date.
Now down to business ... here is a useful link (with thanks to my colleague Matthew Dodson), US power giants face landmark climate lawsuit, which reports on the eight US states and New York City launching the unprecedented civil action against five of America's largest power companies, demanding that they cut carbon dioxide emissions because of global warming. If this gets up in the US, I thinks its fair to say that we will see similiar actions occurring in countries (Australia, for example).
