Each December, various news organizations around the world come up with predictions for the coming year. To join in, I got out the crystal ball in my offices at Hofstra University, went into a deep Thoreau-inspired trance, and let the spirits of the land and sea tell me what is in store for the environment in 2015. Here are my top predictions for news on sustainability and the environment for the coming year.
- The Keystone Pipeline will be rebranded with a different name. The spirits tell me that the new name of the pipeline will be the Canadian Friendship Trail. Along with a pipeline, the route will include bike and walking trails.
Thank you for reading my columns this year on the Huffingtonpost. It has been a pleasure trying to find some humor in the work that we do to try to make the world a better place for future generations. I look forward to a greener, and funnier, 2015. Here on Long Island, we are trying our best at Hofstra University to do good things. I know that you, wherever you are, are doing the same. May your 2015 be filled with happiness, health, friendship, and humor. To read me regularly, please check out my blog here.
