Latest pronouncement on climate
change by James Lovelock

British scientist James Lovelock says in a recent radio
interview in New Zealand: (September 4, 2008)
"I think the role of New Zealand, similar to that of the UK and other
island nations, is to be a lifeboat, because the world may get almost
intolerable during the coming centuries. And you see that happening
already in Australia -- the desert is spreading and things just won't
grow. And island nations like New Zealand will be spared that kind of
damage."

"New Zealand could lead the world by being the perfect 'lifeboat' and
taking that just right number of people that you can support and feed
and the rest of it, and doing it building proper cities. That's going
to take the money and the effort. Trying to stop global warming is
almost a certain waste of time."
