Michael Cornelius Klinger

Writer and Activist, Self-employed

I read, research, and write about climate change, sustainability, and environmental issues. I used to be a cog in the corporate machine, but had a rude awakening in 2010 when my eldest daughter went vegan and introduced me to the consequences of the damage my generation had caused. I try to educate rather than just argue.
