AVERTING CLIMATE CATASTROPHE:
POWER PLANTS OR CLEAN ENERGY --- WHO DECIDES?

                                
“In blunter language, it has become clear that in order to avoid creating a different planet with disastrous consequences for humanity and other species, over the next few decades we will need to 'bulldoze' old-style power plants that
do not capture and store CO2.
”
Dr. Hansen
 

“In fact, the things we need to do (above) have many
other benefits
… there's so much potential in efficiency, we don't need new power plants if
we take advantage of that.
”
Dr. Hansen
 

“We have a moral obligation, and it is to our economic advantage, to take actions promptly.”
Dr. Hansen
