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, todays op-ed article suggests that he really hasnt made any effort to understand the economics of emissions control. And thats not a small matter, because hes now engaged in a misguided crusade against cap and trade, which is lets face it the only form of action against greenhouse gas emissions we have any chance of taking before catastrophe becomes inevitable.
