Guardian Headline - "Leading climate scientist: 'democratic process isn't working'"

Even the very liberal UK Guardian picked up on this. What next Jim, the Constitution? NASA, please
fire this man. (h/t to Barbara)

From the UK Guardian:
Protest and direct action could be the only way to tackle soaring carbon emissions, a leading
climate scientist has said.

James Hansen, a climate modeller with Nasa, told the Guardian today that corporate lobbying has
undermined democratic attempts to curb carbon pollution. "The democratic process doesn't quite seem
to be working," he said.

Speaking on the eve of joining a protest against the headquarters of power firm E.ON in Coventry,
Hansen said: "The first action that people should take is to use the democratic process. What is
frustrating people, me included, is that democratic action affects elections but what we get then
from political leaders is greenwash.

"The democratic process is supposed to be one person one vote, but it turns out that money is
talking louder than the votes. So, I'm not surprised that people are getting frustrated. I think
that peaceful demonstration is not out of order, because we're running out of time."

Hansen said he was taking part in the Coventry demonstration tomorrow because he wants a worldwide
moratorium on new coal power stations. E.ON wants to build such a station at Kingsnorth in Kent, an
application that energy and the climate change minister Ed Miliband recently delayed. "I think that
peaceful actions that attempt to draw society's attention to the issue are not inappropriate,"
Hansen said.

He added that a scientific meeting in Copenhagen last week had made clear the "urgency of the
science and the inaction taken by governments".

Peaceful demonstrations != eco-terrorism.

A Libertarian society is an oxymoron.

This is one that should put Osama Bin Laden to shame:

Wow! Scary stuff! Where will it all end?
