James Hansen, one of the world's leading climate scientists, will today call for the chief executives of large fossil fuel companies to be put on trial for high crimes against humanity and nature, accusing them of actively spreading doubt about global warming in the same way that tobacco companies blurred the links between smoking and cancer.
Hansen will use the symbolically charged 20th anniversary of his groundbreaking speech to the US Congress - in which he was among the first to sound the alarm over the reality of global warming - to argue that radical steps need to be taken immediately if the "perfect storm" of irreversible climate change is not to become inevitable.
Speaking before Congress again, he will accuse the chief executive officers of companies such as ExxonMobil and Peabody Energy of being fully aware of the disinformation about climate change they are spreading.
...
His sharpest words are reserved for the special interests he blames for public confusion about the nature of the global warming threat. "The problem is not political will, it's the alligator shoes - the lobbyists. It's the fact that money talks in Washington, and that democracy is not working the way it's intended to work."

Why is this jackass still working for the government and presumably promoting more whackos at Goddard?
Can't Bush fire any of these losers? It's not as if the envirowhackos will give Bush any credit anyway.
there is a guy at work that keeps spouting that ..put all the oil chiefs in jail....I ask him why and he say treason...I walk away after that
“will today call for the chief executives of large fossil fuel companies to be put on trial for high crimes against humanity and nature”
And let’s hurry up before the dolts get wise.
I thought liberals were OK with crimes against nature...
Not that there's anything wrong with it.
“actively spreading doubt”
so they want make charges of heresy. Its not science, its religion.
James Hansen is a “high crime against nature”.
All the evil old Marxists have repackaged themselves as Global Warmism gurus.
Their quest for power and blood is undiminished.
I am wondering if we actually LOST the Cold War?
....we’re paying this “scientist” millions of dollars for this. :D
Would you believe this guy probably also is a “our government did 9-11” buff? :D
I’m sorry, how smart are they again? I really need them to repeat it again because I keep forgetting...
Commissar Hanson is the primary climate change propagandist out there. He’s a disgrace, and NASA should be embarrassed.
Mr Hansen, can you tell me where oil comes from?
Ayn Rand nailed it.
