The Future [Climate Hoax] Scientist as Young Idealist - Green Blog - NYTimes.com
The Union of Concerned Scientists has opened an advertising campaign that aims to soften the image of climate scientists by portraying future researchers as children and teenagers with an insatiable curiosity about the natural world.Flashback: YouTube - James Hansen On Meat Reduction To Curb Climate Change
The nonprofit group’s ads will appear in print and online in The Los Angeles Times, The Chicago Tribune, The New York Times and other newspapers as well as in the Washington subway system.

Dr. Gavin A. Schmidt, a climate modeler at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York, who was not involved in the campaign, said he thought the ads would probably have little impact on public opinion but were a step in the right direction.
“I think it’s important to let people know that climate scientists aren’t all working in a bunker in Geneva. We’re in their communities,” Dr. Schmitt said. “We’re not part of some vegetarian socialist conspiracy.”
Top climatologist Dr. James Hansen calls for less coal and less meat to stop global warming.Flashback: UN says eat less meat to curb global warming | Environment | The Observer
People should have one meat-free day a week if they want to make a personal and effective sacrifice that would help tackle climate change, the world's leading authority on global warming has told The ObserverFlashback: Chavez Tells Copenhagen Summit “Capitalism Is the Road to Hell” – Gets Standing Ovation
Dr Rajendra Pachauri, chair of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which last year earned a joint share of the Nobel Peace Prize, said that people should then go on to reduce their meat consumption even further.

“I would exhort the government and the people of the earth … to say that if the destructive nature of capitalism exists, let’s fight against it and make it obey us,” he said. “If capitalism resists, then we have to give battle against capitalism and open our way to save mankind.”
But, the Venezuelan leaders attacks on capitalism did not bother the leftist representatives at the summit meeting.
They gave him a rousing ovation.
For centuries science has made our world a better place. But recently, organized interests are attempting to turn science, especially climate science, into a political football. The Union of Concerned Scientists has launched a national advertising campaign to showcase the dedication and personal histories of scientists studying climate change. The campaign is a highly visible part of the organization's effort to shine a light on the scientific truth about human-caused global warming.
