This document is a forwarded email containing a letter signed by various conservative organizations addressed to President George W. Bush. The letter expresses concerns about the recently released Climate Action Report 2002, claiming it relies on "junk science" and undermines the President's opposition to the Kyoto Protocol.

It also calls for dismissing or reassigning administration employees who do not support the President's agenda on global warming and energy policies.
The document reviews the 2001 U.S. Climate Action Report and finds issues with parts that rely heavily on the flawed 2000 U.S. National Climate Assessment.

The reviewer argues the report must address these issues or rewrite portions to avoid misrepresenting the current scientific understanding.

Cory Miller discusses how he treats his team like family at iThemes in order to achieve extraordinary results. Some key aspects of how he fosters a family culture include ensuring everyone feels like they belong, that they can contribute value, and that the team is committed to supporting each other. This involves spending time together both in and outside of work to build relationships and a shared sense of purpose on their journey together. While an unconventional business approach, Miller argues it leads to outcomes better than traditional business methods that keep work and personal lives separate.
