This is so poorly written that it's not useful, even though the concept of each of us pledging to decrease our carbon footprint by 10% [OR MORE] is a good idea.

Interesting story about one aspect of saving money on health care, which is by using more effective treatments. Doesn't mention lowering the cost of medications, banning direct-to-consumer advertising, changing to a system based on primary care, or working for primary, secondary, or tertiary prevention. Important, but needs major editing to reduce verbosity, as well as a broader outlook.

Starts by talking about Haidt's bias against certain liberal opinions and goes on as if that bias neither existed nor had an effect on his research. Vague about the actual research. Lots of other people's philosophies mentioned.
Not only does this story lack details necessary for the evaluation of its validity, such as how the happiness was rated, the difference between the two groups, and the statistical significance, but it does not consider other possible explanations, such as the fact that the "happier" group might have been happier because they wouldn't have another surgery in the relatively near future, rather than because they had given up hope.
In clear language, this story explains the correlation between added fructose and high blood pressure, including the reason that this is essential data for primary care physicians to pass on to their patients to prevent kidney damage. Because this story is intended for a medical audience, it is not as clear as it might be, if intended for a general audience, on the difference between correlation and causation.
Gives references, but not links, to this recurring story of allegations of anti-American treachery by the Israeli government, though links are found in the comment section. Needs further investigation.

There are links and references to TONS of good scientific evidence. Could have given more detail on the book, such as David Kessler's discussion of the food industry.





Do we really need another reason to stop eating so many processed foods with "high fructose corn syrup" and to tell our legislators that farm policy ... More »
