He was once a guru to environmentalists, claiming climate change would kill billions of humans by the end of this century.

But it seems James Lovelock has had a change of heart.

On the eve of a major environmental summit, he has attacked the modern green movement – declaring its theories 'meaningless drivel'.

I read his article. Either he is getting senile, or he has no connection to reality.

I’m not saying that he is wrong, just that he also uses a lot of ‘drivel’ in coming to his ‘new’ conclusion.

92 yr old NASA scientist Dr. Lovelock, changes mind on the “green drivel” he expoused for many years.

best quote in the article: “Slamming environmentalists, he said: ‘It just so happens that the green religion is now taking over from the Christian religion.”

Thanks for the ping. He’s right about the Green religion taking over from the Christian religion, especially in our public schools.

Those who are Californians should be extremely concerned at the total reorientation of land, water, transportation, fish and wildlife, health and other laws around climate change and agenda 21.

CARB directed the Metropolitan Planning Organization [urban areas primarily http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metropolitan_Planning_Organization] for each region to develop a “Sustainable Communities Strategy” (SCS) that integrates transportation, land-use and housing policies to plan for achievement of the emissions target for their region.

The growth of state bureaucracy, unelected regional councils and choking regulation is the result of adhering to a global agenda “implemented locally.” The expense of all this is astounding in a time of budget austerity. Further, it restricts commerce and destroys property rights which affects tax revenue. In turn, the state looks increasingly to the victimized business or property owner to pay for the increased costs of beauraucracy - driving small businesses to the ground.
