Global Warming: Suing NonBelievers
Global warming has become highly politicized in recent years with the likes of global warming alarmist Al Gore and environmentalists. This politicization has hampered American efforts to use readily available and economically viable energy solutions to reduce the price of energy now. The politicization has likewise hampered American ability to decrease our dependence on foreign energy sources and force us to continue paying countries who despise us and support terrorism.
If one man gets his way energy prices will go higher when he attempts to sue fossil fuel companies for "high crimes against humanity and nature." This man is James Hansen who spoke 20 years ago to Congress about the dangers of global warming (see the PDF transcript of the testimony here). He is speaking before Congress again testifying that large fossil fuel entities like Exxon and Peabody Energy have spread knowingly misleading information about anthropogenic global warming.
Despite significant evidence to the contrary Dr. Hansen, head of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, is calling for members of Congress who have doubts about the truth of global warming or a shaky history on the support for global warming legislation to be unseated.
Like most environmentalists, Dr Hansen is hoping to stop our use of America's most abundant energy source, coal. He also advocates supporting the "creation of a huge grid of low-loss electric power lines buried under ground and spread across America, in order to give wind and solar power a chance of competing."
His energy plan would most likely be funded by the public and cost us billions dollars not to mention the economic devastation that would occur if he gets his way and gets America's next president to support the Kyoto Protocol.
Dr. Hansen like other environmentalists notably Al Gore say that global warming is without a doubt true and nonbelievers of this phenomenon should be ostracized for their beliefs despite continuing studies against anthropogenic induced global warming.
