HinckleyIV@aol.com

Charles R. Church is a retired trial attorney, who now has a new three-pronged career as a business manager, an environmentalist and an investor.  While the first of these endeavors is necessary and the third is fun, environmentalism has become his passion.

After completing his undergraduate work at Dartmouth in 1962 (AB, with honors), he obtained his law degree from Seton Hall Law Center (JD, 1971, Editor-in-Chief of Law Review) and graduate law degree from NYU (LLM 1980), he practiced for almost 30 years, primarily in the employment law area, representing aggrieved plaintiffs who had been discriminated against, harassed or wrongfully discharged.  He joined the Sierra Club and other environmental organizations in 1998, studied environmental science at Columbia University, and became co-chair of the Sierra Club, NYC Group's World Climate Crisis Committee and the statewide Atlantic Chapter's Global Warming Committee in 2004.  His article exhorting Governor Pataki to impose a carbon cap on fossil fuel burning power companies ran as the lead item in a recent edition of "Sierra Atlantic," a newspaper sent to Sierra's 40,000 members in New York State.

He has studied global warming extensively, and considers it a threat to our country and the world at least equivalent in seriousness to terrorism.  So he wants to do everything possible to help turn the tide-to energize a commitment on the scale of the Apollo moon project to meet the threat which global warming presents.
