I’m one of those people who started worrying about climate change and the overuse of fossil fuels more than a half century ago. I’m a physicist and systems engineer who left my rocket-scientist career to begin testing telecommuting in the early 1970s. I have successfully initiated telework and telecommuting programs worldwide. These letters augment the blogs I started writing in 2006.
