[GPSCC-chat] Young People's Burden

[Gerry Gras]

FYI,

A new item from Jim Hansen (climatologist).

"Young People's Burden"
http://www.columbia.edu/~jeh1/mailings/2016/20161004_BurdenCommunication.pdf


Some, but not all, of the conclusions:
- "“Negative CO2 emissions,” i.e., extraction of CO2 from the
   air is now required"
- "Continued high fossil fuel emissions place a burden on young
   people to undertake massive technological CO2 extraction."

Also, his view of the ongoing lawsuit of young people
(Our Children’s Trust) vs. the government (re climate change).
