Ticks: A Tale of Climate Change and a Girl - Softcover
TICK . . . TICK . . . TICK . . . May Day 2014: Time left to save the planet from climate change calamity is running out. A U.N. Summit Meeting is called to break a logjam in negotiations for a new international treaty to limit CO2 emissions. Meanwhile, a Grassroots Association of Oklahoma farmers and ranchers adopts a Plan of Action to immediately deal with devastation of rural land caused by hot-and-bothered Mother Nature. As the plan unfolds, ethical and practical dilemmas abound. * Bobbi Kaye Boone, urban socialite and civic activist, burns with desire to stop global warming, but finds worthy causes sometimes come down to not enough money. * Professor Alexander Lehough, an expert on subjects as various as the weather, copes with thorny issues of whether good ends justify unprincipled means. * Virgil Carter, door-to-door salesman and former politician, mindlessly aligns himself on one side of a civil-warlike confrontation between climate change "Liars" and "Deniers." * Willis V. Willis, country lawyer, devoutly hopes for an amicable settlement of the hotly contested dispute, while wrestling with alternative fee arrangements for getting paid. A small town newspaper reporter ---- Henryetta writes again! ---- tries to be journalistically objective in telling the story, but cannot avoid complications in her professional and personal lives brought on by the disturbed atmospheric conditions affecting the troubled planet. In the end, readers of TICKS, A Tale of Climate Change and a Girl, will be surprised by how Mother Nature works in strange and wondrous ways.
