"The goal now is a socialist, redistributionist society, which is nature's proper steward and society's only hope."It's a bit scary, that.

"Isn't the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn't it our responsiblity to bring that about?"And there are plenty more.

- Timothy Wirth, President of the UN Foundation
“The models are convenient fictions that provide something very useful.”
- Dr David Frame, climate modeler, Oxford University
