One more thing… today we released our latest Blacksmith report on the World’s Worst Polluted Places. This time, we focused on successes, which are few and far between. We had a good turnout – half a dozen reporters, from most of the main agencies (Reuters, New York Times, etc) were present, and there have been stories posted already. Its gratifiying to be heard. The flu symptoms are waning, so I managed to answer most of the questions coherently, I think!
