“The trains carrying coal to power plants are death trains. Coal-fired power plants are factories of death”
“CEOs of fossil energy companies know what they are doing and are aware of the long-term consequences of continued business as usual. In my opinion, these CEOs should be tried for high crimes against humanity and nature.”
– James Hansen
Looks like a cold winter on the way. We are only one month into Autumn, and temperatures in Siberia are already down to -34F.
Last winter saw extreme cold over much of the Northern Hemisphere. Two winters ago, China was faced with coal shortages because of the extreme cold and record snow.
How many millions of people would die every winter without coal? If the coal trains were stopped, many people freeze to death. Dead in a very real sense, not in the sense of the output of a half-baked computer model.
Hansen wants the people who provide the coal jailed, for the high crime of not believing his hysterical rantings.
