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 Farnishs 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, dont 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 dont get caught).
2. Blowing up Dams is ok, if you feel the action is a net benefit to the environment.

Great picture. I don’t know. I read their stuff & I just can’t figure out: What is their goal? What is the picture they have in mind? What is the vision?
So we reduce the population world wide to 1,000,000 (say) Are those remaining to live in little villages tending our flocks?
Do these people envision themselves as happy villagers? Or as lords? Are they going to live on locally-grown products without any world-wide transportation system? Are they going to live without cell phones? Are the rest of us?
Or, is this just community organizing, the Left at its best GAIN POWER. Question FOR WHAT?
I think about that question you asked quite often, the only conclusion I have been able to reach is that they are cowards, they fear the future, they fear progress, they fear humanity, they think of people as vermin that must be culled.
In other words, they are afraid of LIFE!
