Of course you know the story of Washington Crossing the Delaware River, which took place on Christmas Day in 1776. The Hessians, who were across the river, were quite surprised. No one really expects a lot of work to be done on Christmas, especially battles. While this was a turning point, emotionally, for the colonists–they needed a win–I’m not much a military expert.

You’d expect me to be a poster boy for promoting technology to help with our environment. I host the Leadership and the Environment podcast. I have a PhD in physics and helped build an observational satellite orbiting the Earth. I take 16 months to fill a small load of trash from my entire home. On the contrary, the more I learn about the effects of technology, the more I find that making a polluting system more efficient makes it pollute more efficiently.
