James Hansen
I tend to be naive and gullible, I guess, but I try to believe that governments believe what they say.
James Hansen
Planet Earth, creation, the world in which civilization developed, the world with climate patterns that we know and stable shorelines, is in imminent peril.
James Hansen
Adding CO2 to the air is like throwing another blanket on the bed.
James Hansen
I was lucky to grow up at a time when it was not difficult for the child of a tenant farmer to make his way to the state university.
James Hansen
The five warmest years over the last century occurred in the last eight years.
