Michael etal - especially Jim Mason 1. Re the 5 minute video on Ms Bronson - I was glad to see that and hope you will keep alerting us to such. The surprise to me was her statement just before the 4 minute mark that carbon dioxide was better in the atmosphere than in geologic formations, the land, or the sea. Does anyone know if there is anything on the ETC website (or anywhere) to support this conclusion - which I have not seen before - and is likely not supported by any (?) on this list, and unlikely by anyone serious about getting back to 350 ppm.
2. She left out getting more CO2 into plant matter; is that acceptable or not to ETC? (many groups like ETC reject REDD+). I think I have gotten into the ETC website once or twice, but have been foiled at least ten times before and couldn't get in tonight. Is there a secret way or time to get there?

Bronson was interesting in that she is calling for some sort of body to assess GE technologies.......before they are supported.....Will someone please break out the crayons and construction paper and explain to me, in really simple terms, how an assessment can be done before the technology has a chance to be....well, for a lack of a better word....... assessed?
