I'm quitting Xitter once the election is resolved. I hope those who've followed me as @ricredman will follow me here -- and I would like to follow everyone here, on Blue Sky, whom I follow on Xitter. Energy, climate, politics, salmon and other wildlife, and literary matters are my main topics. Thx!

I've been working on carbon capture & sequestration for nearly 20 yrs, and am on the board of directors of the Global CCS Institute. I co-teach a graduate course on Real World Problems of Energy & Environment at Univ of CA San Diego. I'm involved in developing net-zero-carbon hydrogen projects.

Plaque for Prof Keeling at the atmospheric observatory high on Mauna Loa. James Hansen & I visited in 2005. Inside all the atmospheric gasses are monitored & charted. One curve turns down - the one for CFCs. Hansen said, "Our job is to turn down the curve on the OUTSIDE of the bldg," i.e., this one.

Thank you! Glad to be here.

Thank you! Appreciate the help!

Just arrived here from The Artist Formerly Known as Twitter (where I am @ricredman). Hoping to connect with those who were part of Climate Twitter and Energy Twitter, along with Literary/Writing/Authors Twitter. I'll write my Profile next. Thanks!
