I'm the author and my (climate) name is Sou, which won't mean much to you if you've not been following climate blogs over the years. I'm just one of the 7 billion plus people alive at the moment. Inconsequential in the bigger scheme of things.<br /><br />Just like the name "Paige Goh" means nothing to me, although I expect you're a very worthy person. (Is it that you know Willis Eschenbach personally in real life and you want to know if you've also come across me?
