Civilization is the problem. Hansen recommends a book that incites violent sabotage, and promotes illegal activities to bring about an end to industrial civilization. Is this kind of book legal in the US?
James Hansen has called for industrial sabotage and defended lawbreakers before, but did he really read all of Keith Farnish’s words before he endorsed the book “Times Up”?
Farnish has put together a frightening compilation. He tried non-violent protest with Greenpeace for five years, but then he changed tactics. He got angry, and recommends you do too:
“Constructive Anger, on the other hand, does achieve something useful – even if it may not be exactly what was originally intended. For instance, if all the evidence you have to hand suggests that removing a sea wall or a dam will have a net beneficial effect on the natural environment then, however you go about it – explosives, technical sabotage or manual destruction – the removal would be a constructive action. If this action was fuelled by anger then your use of explosives involved Constructive Anger.”
The four key rules of sabotage
1. Carefully weigh up all the pros and cons, and then ask yourself, “Is it worth it?”
2. Plan ahead, and plan well, accounting for every possible eventuality.
3. Even if you understand the worth of your action, don’t get caught.
4. Make the Tools of Disconnection your priority; anything else is a waste of time and effort.
What Keith suggests is vigilante terrorism, to paraphrase:
1. Stepping outside the law is essential. (But don’t get caught).
2. Blowing up Dams is ok, if you feel the action is a net benefit to the environment.

The Emperer’s (Kevin Rudd) New Clothes – A Fairytale
An emperor (Kevin Rudd pictured above) who cares too much about clothes ( the glory of saving the world from Human induced Global warming) hires two swindlers (James Hansen and Al Gore ) who promise him the finest suit of clothes from the most beautiful cloth (prestige of leading the world to a Carbon Reduced future). .
This cloth (saving the world from carbon Induced Warming), they tell him, is invisible to anyone who was either stupid or unfit for his position. .
The Emperor cannot see the (non-existent) cloth, but pretends that he can for fear of appearing stupid; his ministers (Wong, Garrett & Co) do the same. .
When the swindlers report that the suit is finished ( National Emissions Trading Scheme), they dress him in mime. The Emperor then goes on a procession through the capital showing off his new “clothes”. .
During the course of the procession, a small child (60 Minutes) cries out, “But he has nothing on!” The crowd realizes the child is telling the truth. The Emperor, however, holds his head high and continues the procession (until the crowd gets to vote on his stupidity at the next election).
Cheers!
Just in case you haven’t stumbled across this, check out “The Green Agenda.”
Keep in mind taxpayers fund all these people. We the schleppers pay for these people to live better than most of us.
This one is teaching your kids (for a lot of $$)

equivalent of giving an idiot child a machine gun.”

about 100 million worldwide, destroy the industrial infrastructure and see wilderness, with it’s full complement of species, returning throughout the world.”

“Current lifestyles and consumption patterns of the
affluent middle class - involving high meat intake,
use of fossil fuels, appliances, air-conditioning,

selfish and unethical animal on the earth.”

It’s hard to pick the most unbelievable statement. There’s lots to pick from here. They believe we should abandon technology. Are we to be hunter-gathers or is it OK to be a subsistence farmer? Shall we lie down with our cattle and wait until the snow melts dragging them out to the fields so that those with the strength to get up and eat might survive? (Description by Goethe — not that long ago in long-term thinking.) Some of us could make shoes — I digress ...
Cheers!
Thanks,...time to rest my eyeballs....
Werner Von Braun would have kciked this clown to the curb in about 5 seconds. NASA was good when the Germans ran it. It is a joke now.
Hansen's GISS colleague declared that the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report had "no scientific merit".
Just checking, but we’re the dangerous terrorists...right?
Perhaps this is what they have in mind?
So help me, whenever I read this kind of nonsense, I want to find out where these idiots live, burn their house down and see how they like it.
What is good for the goose is good for the gander.
LOL! It would be funny if the rats weren’t so serious.
hmmm... all...species? Hansen’s been mindcloned by aliens. They are allergic to beer, KFC, and cookies and cannot eat us if we consume those items. They have sent Hansen back to Earth on a mission to destroy all mass-produced food and drink and turn us into alien-palatable vegans.
One of the biggest turds of AGW that needs to be flushed, but he’s right at home with his fellow Maoists in the Obama administration.
Thanks a million for all the links-—biggest con job the world has EVER seen.
The clown needs to be fired and then hung in the public square....as a warning for all the other AGW crooks to fess up!

*******************************EXCERPT INTRO********************************
James Hansen is a great climate scientist. He was the first to warn about the climate crisis; I take what he says about coal, in particular, very seriously.
Unfortunately, while I defer to him on all matters climate, today’s op-ed article suggests that he really hasn’t made any effort to understand the economics of emissions control. And that’s not a small matter, because he’s now engaged in a misguided crusade against cap and trade, which is — let’s face it — the only form of action against greenhouse gas emissions we have any chance of taking before catastrophe becomes inevitable.
“...Hansen is a great climate scientest”. Wonder what tank car parked in the outgoing ladder yard of a petrochemical plant Krugman is drinking from.
