Absolutely. It is possible – if we give politicians a cold, hard slap in the face. The fraudulence of the Copenhagen approach – "goals" for emission reductions, "offsets" that render ironclad goals almost meaningless, the ineffectual "cap-and-trade" mechanism – must be exposed. We must rebel against such politics as usual.
Science reveals that climate is close to tipping points. It is a dead certainty that continued high emissions will create a chaotic dynamic situation for young people, with deteriorating climate conditions out of their control.
Science also reveals what is needed to stabilise atmospheric composition and climate. Geophysical data on the carbon amounts in oil, gas and coal show that the problem is solvable, if we phase out global coal emissions within 20 years and prohibit emissions from unconventional fossil fuels such as tar sands and oil shale.
Such constraints on fossil fuels would cause carbon dioxide emissions to decline 60% by mid-century or even more if policies make it uneconomic to go after every last drop of oil.
Improved forestry and agricultural practices could then bring atmospheric carbon dioxide back to 350 ppm (parts per million) or less, as required for a stable climate.
Governments going to Copenhagen claim to have such goals for 2050, which they will achieve with the "cap-and-trade" mechanism. They are lying through their teeth.
Unless they order Russia to leave its gas in the ground and Saudi Arabia to leave its oil in the ground (which nobody has proposed), they must phase out coal and prohibit unconventional fossil fuels.
Instead, the United States signed an agreement with Canada for a pipeline to carry oil squeezed from tar sands. Australia is building port facilities for large increases in coal export. Coal-to-oil factories are being built. Coal-fired power plants are being constructed worldwide.

W should have fired this guy when he had the chance.
Apparently he hasn’t kept up with current events.
Another climate whore for your tax dollars.....
I’d say theres a very very good chance we can avert a disaster. I need about $3 Billion in grant money to make sure though.
James Hansen got caught fudging data twice. He has a lot of nerve to write such garbage in light of the CRU scam.
He should have fired a lot of guys. It was one of his biggest weaknesses--being nice to the enemy. They were nevere nice to him in return.
And giving up all of our basic freedoms and liberty to unelected global bureaucrats will create a good situation for our young people? Yeah, right. I'll take my chances burning fossil fuels rather than letting people like Hansen run my life.
Well, for once James is right about something.
The climate crisis is that science has lost its integrity. Fallacious climate models have been created and fraudulent reports constructed to establish a fictitious basis for acquiring additional taxpayer funds.
He blinded me with science!
More mindless babble from the fish wrap of the UK.
Isn’t the Guardian a commie paper?
Isn’t the Guardian a commie paper?
Can't avoid it.
That was one fast double-post.
James Hansen is AlGore’s mentor. He was brainwashing AlGore 20 years ago about global warming. 30 years ago Time magazine had covers devoted to “The Coming Global Ice Age”
AlGore is a key player in this hoax and you can thank the manic-hysteric James Hansen for teaching him all he knows. Ever since then Hansen has been on the Federal Gov’t dole, burning through taxpayer money like thee is no tomorrow. All to prove global warming and to lie about it. Steven McIntyre caught Hansen’s lies about the 10 hottest years in the last 100. Hansen lied and distorted his way into making it look like these 10 hottest years have all been recent. When in fact many are from the 1930s Dustbowl era
