James Lovelock Suggests Suspending Democracy To Save the World
mosb1000 writes "Climate scientist James Lovelock claims it may be necessary to put democracy on hold to prevent a global climate catastrophe. He goes on to say that the best remedies may be adaptation techniques such as building sea defenses."
Lovelock is famously the creator of the Gaia hypothesis.
Environmentalism was a secret movement there and people were harassed by the secret police for doing something for the environment. This is exactly what this fool wants with his dreamed up theories. Now you just have to explain to me, i.e. how mining in Russia and Eastern Germany were environmentaly friendly. Not to speak of all the other desasters. He probably also thinks Chernobyl was a good idea.
Je me souviens.
If you really want to know more on the hidden agenda of such issue, please do a search of "Lovelock" and "Gala" at this site: http://www.crossroad.to/text/search.html
Fuck. You. Dickwad. Nothing like paying attention. Just because you disagree with my position doesn't mean I'm writing flamebait, and just because I call someone out as a troll does not make me flame bait.
Fuck. you.
Shoes for Industry. Shoes for the Dead.
Bravo, ArcherB. I'd given up as a long time contributor for awhile due to downmods on the Global Warming "discussion". At least you're getting an "Insightful" mod.
I declined to moderate even though I received points regularly and I recently dropped my subscription.
It just didn't seem reasonable for me to continue to support a site that rewards alarmist theories/comments based on flaky evidence.
They DO gather up monopoly power, manipulate governments, and do all the nasty things that humans with accumulate power tend to do.
fixed that for you.
Yes, I'm left. You have a problem with that?
Except all the people in power and all the people who will be in power are just paid proxies for corporates interests. Boot out this or that politician? The corporations will just pay to have an equivalent replacement. They will ensure the message changes from time to time ( Obama was given a different script to Bush) but behind the scenes there is nothing but a plutocracy. "Democracy" is just the marketing bullshit phrase used to sell yet more plutocratic power grabs.
