Green Police State

Here.

Excerpt [quote from Mayer Hillman]:
"When the chips are down I think democracy is a less important goal than is the protection of the planet from the death of life, the end of life on it. [Carbon rationing] has got to be imposed on people whether they like it or not. "
You should also read this linked article, entitled "Let's ditch this 'nostalgia for mud'".

Excerpt:
So let’s dispel the fairy tale of the idyllic life of subsistence farming once and for all. For those Westerners who can’t, Andrew has a simple tip: ‘Let’s swap lives’.
Note that Al Gore chooses not to live in a mud hut, and he chooses not to travel everywhere on foot.
