Protesting golf

[Tom Hooker]

Golf might have an optics problem, but golf course architecture has an actual existential problem. Joke’s on NGL, I guess.

How much fun would it be to be in charge of a website like this?

Well it appears that I'm good until at least 2080, but I'm gonna need a boat or bridge to access my house beginning around 2070.
In 2012 when Sandy caused the highest tide ever recorded in Sag Harbor, my house was fine(not even close) but my backyard, side and front street were canoe only.
The only damage I sustained were two very deep tire ruts from the fire truck riding up onto my lawn to check in on us.

We may have a lot less time than the previous forecasts have suggested.


For those in the “Don’t worry, technology will sort it” camp, it would be great to believe you’re right but what if you’re not? It’s a hell of a gamble to take with the future of life as we’ve known it.
