The best way CNN founder Ted Turner could describe the environmental crisis facing humanity, as he sees it, on Sunday was with a baseball analogy: “It’s the seventh inning and we’re down by two runs,” Turner said. “We have to hold them where they are and put three runs on the board in the last two innings.” Convince people to have fewer children. Convince coal and oil industry leaders to shift toward wind, solar and other alternative energy sources. Convince the world’s leaders to abandon nuclear weapons.
