Re:  Arctic Methane: Why the Sea Ice Matters

Dear President Obama and Mr. Tillerson,

You both behave as though you are oblivious to the urgency the rest of us understand. Both

of you are intelligent, informed and intellectually capable of synthesizing a multitude of verycomplex information and formulating measures to capitalize or optimize constructive results.

Yet, each in your own ways, you are ignoring the evidence that portends the end of humanity.This short video (http://bit.ly/sea-ice-matters) explains what people get, and why thousandsof people of conscience are behaving as though this is an emergency -- we don’t understandyour amoral nonchalance. Have you noticed the increased intensity and tenor of actions “inthe streets” challenging “authority”? It will increase until you get it. Please “get it”  quickly .
