I appreciate and am gratified by the responses so far on the use of SD
models to address climate change issues.  As several of you have indicated,
it does seem that considerable work has been done, but more work is urgently
needed to direct the kinds of actions that will have a tangible impact on
mitigating the effects of global industrialization.  I think this becomes
even more necessary with the rapidly-progressing development of economic
activity in populous countries such as China, India, and others.  We are
truly a global society now; hopefully we can continue the dialogue towards
solutions that will benefit all of us in the long run.
