This month we focus on environmental concerns. Barbara Lloyd McMichael writes a feature article about the “Trinity” Act that would support wildlife protections for America’s Bison, Grizzly Bear and Wolves. For the past six months, we have published Dr. Peter Corning’s series of six linked essays UNITE OR DIE. Dr. Corning describes why climate change is worsening, but he also offers solutions to this growing problem. To read all of Dr. Corning’s linked essays in this six-part series please go to Dr. Corning’s website.
