Can Humanity Be Saved?
By Thom Hartmann A...
As the Amazon is on fire and the Democratic Party refuses to hold a debate focused on climate change, an Australian think tank has come out with a report suggesting the possibility that climate change could destroy human civilization within as little as 30 years. Climate change has already destroyed civilization in Syria; as it expands across the planet, it could take the rest of us with it. Considering this chaotic possibility, governments need to reconfigure both their political and their military positions to radically reduce the chance of nuclear disaster and focus on completely decarbonizing our economy. This is a massive project and absolutely necessary: literally reconfiguring the world in order to save humanity.-Thom

So you would take Obama's judgment over that of the vast, vast majority of scientists? He's a politician, not a climate scientist. I, at least, took the trouble to get a degree in environmental science to look at the evidence, and there is overwhelming corroboration from a wide range of sciences.

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Right through the worst of the Bush years and into the present, Thom Hartmann has been one of the very few voices constantly willing to tell the truth. Rank him up there with Jon Stewart, Bill Moyers, and Paul Krugman for having the sheer persistent courage of his convictions."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
From Screwed:
"The powers that be are running roughshod over the powers that OUGHT to be. Hartmann tells us what went wrong — and what you and I can do to help set American right again."
Climate change is a scam, Thom.
"a report suggesting the possibility that climate change could destroy..."? Talk about nuanced language.
If climate change is such a threat, why would Pres. Barack Obama (the hero of many on the left) plop down $14.8 million on a beachfront mansion on Martha's Vineyard if it is going to be wiped out by rising sea levels in 10-20 years? How much sense does that make? I guess that makes BHO a climate denier.
