As Founding Director of the Apollo-Gaia Project (see www.apollo-gaia.org), David Wasdell is one of the world's leading authorities on the dynamics of climate change.  His rigorous scientific approach is combined with deep understanding of the social, economic, psychological and communications issues that have blurred popular understanding and blocked executive action in response to our global crisis. His 2013 keynote address to the Club of Rome was followed by publication of new research on Climate Sensitivity, a radical response to the 2014 New York Climate Summit convened by Ban Ki-Moon and high level briefings in preparation for the global climate conference to be held in Paris this December.  His disturbing critique of the 'budgetary approach' to climate change raises issues of crucial relevance and significance for each and every one of us.  Facing the Harsh Realities of Now by David Wasdell:  ow.ly/TUCqn and http://ow.ly/TYHuN
