I had a great opportunity to attend a lecture by Jim Hansen, Director of NASA Goddard institute of space sciences. He was the one who alerted the public in 1988 about global warming.
The lecture was on ‘Threats to planet: Implications for Inter-generational justice and energy policies’. Jim Hansen did lack the energy and inspiration, when compared of Al Gore, but did get the message across. I say this because Jim Hansen’s is the first lecture I attended after Al gore’s in OCT. I still have some inspiration going on in me from that speech! Anyways, I have not seen or know another environmentalist who is such a strong advocator of Coal moratorium.
Here is the link to the Jim Hansen’s page and this presentation is similar to one he gave us.
