What, it’s actually inhabitable now?

Designer Vivivienne Westwood says “Within one generation, Los Angeles will be uninhabitable if people don’t do something about [climate change].” (Click on the link and observe the photo. Westwood is the one who looks like the cowardly lion’s mother.)

More deep thought from this self-appointed priestess of the Church of Cli-Fi:

The world is going to get smaller and be uninhabitable and impossible to live in. The most important thing is for people to inform themselves, because when you inform yourself your behavior changes. All we’ve got is public opinion to help to do something about this. I just try to wear lots of slogans and open my mouth whenever I can.

Thank you, Vivienne, for providing the best definition of a liberal that I’ve ever seen.

Moss-backed earth-torchers, of course, are pushing back. Here’s Richard S. Lindzen, a Professor of Atmospheric Sciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology:

The dangers of the (government) policies seem more obviously dangerous than climate change. Climate change has always been with us, and the evidence is that we can adapt to it.

Better stick to fashion design, Vivienne. On the other hand… maybe not.
