Editor’s Comments:

This 47th issue offers some of our research on close to home and far away issues, including insights into unexpected mysteries and some unique innovations. We have also included a section on “CHASING ZERO”, tracking sometimes mysterious changes in Carbon news. We are also grateful for recent dispatches: from Dr. Robert Mayer Arzuaga, from the University of Puerto Rico, who is restoring Hurricane ravaged beaches in Puerto Rico and had some great news about the Biomimicry sand restoration system they were using, which was developed on Cape Cod; and from Keegan Burke, previous Safe Harbor Intern, who is now waking up at 3:30 AM and carrying Bear Spray, in Legendary Yellowstone National Park.
