[MCN] Forest Service to assess climate change impact on nearby human communities

[Lance Olsen]

"National forests have been asked to assess how climate change will 
impact nearby human communities. To assist their thinking on this 
topic, a new paper put out by the Forest Service examines the 
concepts of social vulnerability and adaptive capacity with an 
emphasis on a range of theoretical and methodological approaches. 
This analysis is designed to help researchers and decision-makers 
select appropriate research approaches suited to particular planning 
and management needs."

"The tendency for success to breed complacency and recklessness is as 
ingrained in financial markets as it is in any other walk of life."

  "Access to more capital makes bigger crises feasible: every now and 
then, somewhere in the world, one is going to happen.

"Is this because the same mistakes are made again and again, or is 
each crisis unique?  The answer is yes to both :  each crisis is 
unique, and the same mistakes are made again and again."

"While a bubble is inflating, reckless lending seems merely bold, and 
appropriately well-rewarded."
