Dinner discussion topic: The Pope's statement on climate change

The Pope has released his position on climate change (see NY Times coverage) which is leading to vigorous debate and discussion. What do you and your guests think about this?  Has he crossed a line or is his position about preserving life on Earth and reducing human suffering on target?  Why do you think what you think?  Will this change your (or your guests') behavior?  If so, how?  If not, why not?

Salmon season!

LA Times has some great wild salmon recipes including salmon bisque and chipotle salmon.

Yum!  Will try these soon.

Almonds are not the enemy...

Mark Bittman has a GREAT Op-Ed in the NY Times talking about how rational water use in California means growing what grows well there and accepting the higher costs of food that will be associated with pricing water correctly.  Great read and great discussion topic for dinner this weekend.
