Check out these maps in the Washington Post of the arctic ice cover.
They remind me of the maps in Al Gore's Inconvenient Truth book.
They were taken by NASA satellites, and they show the "steepest decline yet" in the melting ice.
The BLDG BLOG has a nice post on it, too. By the way, the blogger and author, Geoff Manaugh, will be speaking tonight at MICA. You can get there wheres and whens of it on his blog.
Rona Kobell reports on the Chesapeake Bay, and in her seven years with The Sun, she's visited clam farms in Virginia, a peeler pen on Taylors Island and a small market on Smith Island that serves what many people consider the best crab cake in the world (to judge for yourself, head to the Drum Point Market in Tylerton). Rona enjoys hanging out with her husband and daughter.
Tom Pelton writes about the environment and has been at The Sun for 10 years. He lives in the city with his wife, two daughters, and an exotic ecosystem that involves a cat, hamsters, hermit crabs, cacti, running shoes, drums, guitar, violins, mild cheeses and strong opinions.
Listen in: Tom Pelton's "The Environment in Focus"
Tim Wheeler writes about growth and base-realignment for The Sun. A reporter and editor here since 1985, the West Virginia native has spent most of his adult life around the bay. He lives in Catonsville, one of Baltimore's older, walkable suburbs.
