If you follow climate and environmental discourse as closely as I do, then you know that the recent New Yorkerpiece by the acclaimed novelist Jonathan Franzen has triggered 1) applause, 2) denunciation, 3) head-scratching.

One of the best essays on climate change and conservation I have ever read. Thank you Jonathan Franzen http://t.co/8Fux7Aq4kI — Ted Nordhaus (@TedNordhaus) March 30, 2015
