Letter from the Editor

Dear readers,

I am writing to you today not as an optimist, a cynic, or an idealist. I am not an accredited professor, a prize winner, or a scientist. I am a common individual with common thoughts living a common life nurtured by unconditional love from my family, and by the favorable circumstances I was born into that helped shape my story.

WHY Magazine is my attempt to share with the world some perspectives on what I perceive as the most exciting theme of the 21st century: global warming and its multidimensional intricacies.
