It is unfortunate that the scientific community is letting Hansen and other government paid pseudo scientists get away with their distortions of the truth. They are discrediting their own institution. It is foolish to take government stats, research, and investigations serious anymore.
Hansen’s Study: Did Global Warming Cause Recent Extreme Weather Events?
Legalizing Industrial Hemp would go a long ways toward greening the planet, but it is never talked about by the global warming alarmists. Sad really. Compostable plastics, high quality paper and clothes, clean burning fuel, renewable resource ... there are so many advantages to hemp, yet the alarmists tell us we must pay the piper instead. What are we paying them for? The truly sad part is that millions of people actually believe that global warming is a problem with no viable solutions. Government keeps hemp illegal to grow. Why? What is their real agenda?

Hansen’s Study: Did Global Warming Cause Recent Extreme Weather Events?
In short, Hansen’s sweeping assertion that global warming is the principal cause of the European and Russian heat waves, and the Texas-Oklahoma drought, is not supported by event-specific analysis and is implausible in light of previous research.
...
The Breakthrough Institute develops this thesis in great detail in a collection of posts titled the “Death of Cap-and-Trade.” Because affordable energy is vital to prosperity and much of the world is energy poor, it would be economically ruinous and, thus, politically suicidal to demand that people abandon fossil fuels before cheaper alternative energies are available. But that is exactly what warmistas like Hansen urge the U.S. and other governments to do – lock up vast stores of carbonaceous fuel and penalize fossil energy use before commercially-viable alternatives exist.
As the Breakthrough folks argue, if you’re worried about climate change, then your chief policy goal should be to make alternative energy cheaper than fossil energy. Instead, the global warming movement has attempted to make fossil energy more costly than alternative energy, or to simply mandate the switch to alternative energy regardless of cost. Al Gore’s call in 2008 to “re-power America” with zero-carbon energy within 10 years is epitomizes this folly. More “moderate” variants would only do less harm, less rapidly.
