Piecemakers Quilt Guild provides quilts for recovering veterans
Quilts for Heroes is a project which honors returning disabled U.S. Armed Forces veterans from Aransas and San Patricio counties with the presentation of a patriotic quilt. The group's goal is to reach out to local returning disabled veterans. Any individual or organization who has a personal connection to a soldier, please contact the Quilts for Heroes project chair, Sandy Stanley, at 729-5369. The existing privacy law prohibits some names from being released and project coordinators will not about these soldiers without assistance from the community.
Many of the returning veterans from the Iraq war have emotional and/or physical disabilities. This project provides local quiltmakers an opportunity to show their appreciation to the returning disabled veterans. The quilt is a small token to honor their heroic service for this country.

Suffice it to say, it looks to me like this book is much more about influencing public opinion than any scientific review of whether human activity is causing climate change.
It is sad some people will believe this as fact. "
