2. insane asylum

3. grave

Hansen should have been fired a long time ago. He’s just another wacky “global warmer” trying to hold on to his cushy government job.

[flash2368]

Another nut job in charge.

Shut the whole thing down. It became a nest of pathological weirdos a long time ago.

What does Pelosi have to say?
Are these people dangerous? Should we be watching them?

Oh, that’s right, only Town Hall protestors are dangerous.

So should we start the destruction at their residences? How about their cars? Or even their places of employment. I guess they exempt themselves since they are annoited...

that disgusting piece of work wrote to the Australian Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd:

27 March 2008
The Hon Kevin Rudd, MP
Prime Minister of Australia
Australian Parliament
Canberra, Australian Capital Territory, 2600

Dear Prime Minister,
Your leadership is needed on a matter concerning coal-fired power plants and carbon dioxide
emission rates in your country, a matter with ramifications for life on our planet, including all
species. Prospects for today’s children, and especially the world’s poor, hinge upon our success in
stabilizing climate.

For the sake of identification, I am a United States citizen, director of the NASA Goddard
Institute for Space Studies and Adjunct Professor at the Columbia University Earth Institute. I
am a member of our National Academy of Sciences, have testified before our Senate and House
of Representatives on many occasions, have advised our Vice President and Cabinet members on
climate change and its relation to energy requirements, and have received numerous awards
including the World Wildlife Fund’s Duke of Edinburgh Conservation Medal from Prince Philip.
I write, however, as a private citizen, a resident of Kintnersville, Pennsylvania, USA. I was assisted
in composing this letter by colleagues, including Australians, Americans, and Europeans, who
commented upon a draft letter. Because of the urgency of the matter, I have not collected
signatures, but your advisors will verify the authenticity of the science discussion.

I recognize that for years you have been a strong supporter of aggressive forward-looking actions
to mitigate dangerous climate change. Also, since your election as Prime Minister of Australia,
your government has been active in pressing the international community to take appropriate
actions. We are now at a point that bold leadership is needed, leadership that could change the
course of human history.

I have read and commend the Interim Report of Professor Ross Garnaut, submitted to your
government. The conclusion that net carbon emissions must be cut to a fraction of current
emissions must be stunning and sobering to policy-makers. Yet the science is unambiguous: if we
burn most of the fossil fuels, releasing the CO2 to the air, we will assuredly destroy much of the
fabric of life on the planet. Achievement of required near-zero net emissions by mid-century
implies a track with substantial cuts of emissions by 2020. Aggressive near-term fostering of
energy efficiency and climate friendly technologies is an imperative for mitigation of the looming
climate crisis and optimization of the economic pathway to the eventual clean-energy world.

Global climate is near critical tipping points that could lead to loss of all summer sea ice in the
Arctic with detrimental effects on wildlife, initiation of ice sheet disintegration in West Antarctica
and Greenland with progressive, unstoppable global sea level rise, shifting of climatic zones with
extermination of many animal and plant species, reduction of freshwater supplies for hundreds of
millions of people, and a more intense hydrologic cycle with stronger droughts and forest fires, but
also heavier rains and floods, and stronger storms driven by latent heat, including tropical storms,
tornados and thunderstorms.

Feasible actions now could still point the world onto a course that minimizes climate change. Coal
clearly emerges as central to the climate problem from the facts summarized in the attached Fossil
Fuel Facts. Coal caused fully half of the fossil fuel increase of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air
today, and on the long run coal has the potential to be an even greater source of CO2. Due to the
dominant role of coal, solution to global warming must include phase-out of coal except for uses
where the CO2 is captured and sequestered. Failing that, we cannot avoid large climate change,
because a substantial fraction of the emitted CO2 will stay in the air more than 1000 years.
Yet there are plans for continuing mining of coal, export of coal, and construction of new coal-fired
power plants around the world, including in Australia, plants that would have a lifetime of half a
century or more. Your leadership in halting these plans could seed a transition that is needed to
solve the global warming problem.

Choices among alternative energy sources - renewable energies, energy efficiency, nuclear power,
fossil fuels with carbon capture - these are local matters. But decision to phase out coal use unless
the CO2 is captured is a global imperative, if we are to preserve the wonders of nature, our
coastlines, and our social and economic well being.
Although coal is the dominant issue, there are many important subsidiary ramifications, including
the need for rapid transition from oil-fired energy utilities, industrial facilities and transport
systems, to clean (solar, hydrogen, gas, wind, geothermal, hot rocks, tide) energy sources, as well
as removal of barriers to increased energy efficiency.
If the West makes a firm commitment to this course, discussion with developing countries can be
prompt. Given the potential of technology assistance, realization of adverse impacts of climate
change, and leverage and increasing interdependence from global trade, success in cooperation of
developed and developing worlds is feasible.

The western world has contributed most to fossil fuel CO2 in the air today, on a per capita basis.
This is not an attempt to cast blame. It only recognizes the reality of the early industrial
development in these countries, and points to a responsibility to lead in finding a solution to global
warming.

A firm choice to halt building of coal-fired power plants that do not capture CO2 would be a major
step toward solution of the global warming problem. Australia has strong interest in solving the
climate problem. Citizens in the United States are stepping up to block one coal plant after another,
and major changes can be anticipated after the upcoming national election.

If Australia halted construction of coal-fired power plants that do not capture and sequester the
CO2, it could be a tipping point for the world. There is still time to find that tipping point, but just
barely. I hope that you will give these considerations your attention in setting your national
policies. You have the potential to influence the future of the planet.

Prime Minister Rudd, we cannot avert our eyes from the basic fossil fuel facts, or the consequences
for life on our planet of ignoring these fossil fuel facts. If we continue to build coal-fired power
plants without carbon capture, we will lock in future climate disasters associated with passing
climate tipping points. We must solve the coal problem now.
For your information, I plan to send a similar letter to the Australian States Premiers.
I commend to you the following Australian climate, paleoclimate and Earth scientists to provide
further elaboration of the science reported in my attached paper (Hansen et al., 2008):

Professor Barry Brook, Professor of climate change, University of Adelaide
Dr Andrew Glikson, Australian National University
Professor Janette Lindesay, Australian National University
Dr Graeme Pearman, Monash University
Dr Barrie Pittock, CSIRO
Dr Michael Raupach, CSIRO
Professor Will Steffen, Australian National University
Sincerely,

NO THANKS HANSEN, WE CAN MANAGE OUR OWN COUNTRY! WHO THE H*LL DOES HE THINK HE IS?

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).

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 ...

Just checking, but we’re the dangerous terrorists...right?

[blueplum]

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.
