Hostile Environments is an ongoing series of pieces dealing with environmental issues such as climate change, deforestation, loss of habitat...and the dreaded global warming. Some of these issues are very cut and dry to me...I know where I stand...others, I don't even know if they are real...but if they are, we're in trouble.

I doubt these pieces are going to save the world....but there is a 100% better chance of that happening than there is of Superman stepping in to do the job...and that makes me better than him on two fronts, because Kryptonite doesn't phase me in the least.

Of course I hope these pieces make you laugh, but more importantly, I hope they make you think.
