MICHAEL GRAHAM RICHARD, LL.L, LL.B.

Michael Graham Richard, LL.L, LL.B. is editor-in-chief of TreeHugger. As of August 2007, he works for Discovery, the company that bought TreeHugger.
 
TreeHugger is the leading media outlet dedicated to driving sustainability mainstream. They are a one-stop shop for green news, solutions, and product information. At TreeHugger they know that variety is the spice of life, so you can find all you need to go green in their up to the minute blog, weekly and daily newsletters, weekly video segments, weekly radio show and their user-generated blog.
 
A generalist (aspiring to polymath status), Michael is curious about everything, including in no particular order: the environment and all related fields, literature, science, technology, music, politics, history, economics and various social issues. One of his goals with his Michael Graham Richard blog is to structure his thoughts on various topics — there's nothing quite like writing things down — and share what he learns with others.
 
Michael authored The Individuals-as-Groups Fallacy, Irrationality Can Screw Up Your Life, Incubating a New Project, Meditations on a Cell, Is Apathy a Disease?, Cognitive Bias: Confirmation Bias, Cognitive Bias: Base-Rate Fallacy, Cognitive Bias: Planning Fallacy, Cognitive Bias: Conjunction Fallacy, Cognitive Bias: Monte Carlo Fallacy, Overcoming Bias: Torture or Dust Specks?, Deflecting Earth-Bound Asteroids, Cemetery Excursions: Hunting Bacteria to Help LysoSENS, My Experience With Synesthesia, Distributed Computing, Sequencing Evolution in Real-Time, Intel: Now Largest Purchaser of Green Power in U.S., and Cellulosic Ethanol in Japan: BioEthanol & Celunol.

Michael earned two law degrees from the University of Ottawa: one in Civil Law (LL.L.) and one in Common Law (LL.B.).
 
He is not jewish, but he likes to dance to klezmer music when he's alone and nobody can see how badly he moves.
