I’ve been saying this for years. If we were to find a non-hydrocarbon energy source that could easily and cleanly meet all our needs, the environmentally responsible thing to do would be to dig up all the oil and coal and natural gas we could find and burn it anyway. CO2 is the building block of life. All the carbon removed from the biosphere needs to be returned to it. Perhaps that is Man’s real purpose. Perhaps the lack of CO2 is why there are few megafauna left.

invited fellow warm-mongers to "mass civil disobedience at the coal-fired" plant that heats and cools the hallowed halls of Congress.

I'd be happy to see THAT plant shut down. Might slow Congress down a little...

"An enthusiastic crowd of mostly young people marched from a park near the Capitol to the small power plant several blocks away, chanting "We don't want the world to boil, no coal, no oil!""

Good thing there was plenty o' snow there today.

It’s time for “civil disobedience” alright. I mean that in the most uncivil manner.

It is way past time to start stomping the stupid out of these humanity hating, socialist utopian mass murder loving scumbags. They are and have been causing real pain, misery and hardship for too long with out any repercussions at all.

But they wont arrest him on what amounts to a terrorism charge...

Because that’s what “mass civil disobedience at the coal-fired” amounts to.

Thatg recent statement by Japanese climate scientists appears to carry the weight of a position of the Japanese government. Assuming that to be the case, the idea of libtards simply going on with this crap as if nothing new had come to light is basically criminal.

Nah, All of our problems will be solved if we just move to a Si based biology.

Thanks, but the video was pretty much what I saw streamed live today from the “action” website. I was hoping for a cut of any speeches that might have occurred.

All talk, no action.

All hat, no cattle.

All computer models, no warming.
