Roger Cox is a Dutch attorney at law and pragmatic visionary. In his book Revolution Justified he calls for judicial intervention to save the planet and humanity. Due to the inaction of governments to adequately regulate greenhouse gases to avoid the dangers of climate change, governments themselves have now become a danger to society, Roger Cox says. That’s why according to Roger, the law is now our only hope of really averting dangerous climate change and of breaking the status quo in the energy world. Following the script of his book Roger sued the Dutch government before the court in the Hague for it’s failing climate policies, in cooperation with the Dutch NGO Urgenda and a thousand Dutch citizens as plaintiffs. He is also setting up a network of plaintiffs for similar proceedings in other European countries.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

I like the analogy between the wolf and the lawyer.
I hope Canadian lawyers will begin filing lawsuits against the Harper government based on their irresponsible climate policies …
What a joke. Come back in three years and check on the success of such suits. Europe is the only place where this kind of gimmick will get a foot in the door and even the ECtHR is (probably) not crazy enough to afflict the continent's economy with this kind of torture. Outside of Europe. needless to say, this is going nowhere fast. Think I'm wrong? Watch the cases move through the systems. Watch the precedents pile up. It's a waste of paper and ink and filing fees.
In other words, democracy doesn't work, let's go to the courts. No thanks.

Congratulation Roger – its great to see that the first case inspired by your vision has been successful! Let's hope that this starts a domino effect…
So we're accepting the Government scientists' model – that 'greenhouse gases' are causing 'climate change'? The 'science is settled' i.e., scientific debate is disallowed? So, government scientists come up with models that are accepted without observable evidence and the government must tax and regulate us more? It almost seems like a global scam but I'm sure the Government scientists wouldn't lie about Weapons of Mass …. err…. "Global Warming"… err…. I mean 'Climate Change'.

Co2 is clearly irrelevant where climate change is concerned this warm period now ending has been the coolest ever while co2 has risen to 400 ppm That tells me as a scientist co2 is irrelevant when climate change is concerned Co2 is the elixir of life by enriching the atmosphere with co2 all life on this planet has benefited beyond comprehension Your comprehension not mine
+michaelq That is a pity because my science is robust. I may be lazy with my punctuation but not my research.Think with an objective logic .Use Feynman's ''How do we do science''? "" well first we make a guess. No dont laugh that is the truth .Then we take this guess that we have made and compute what it would mean ,that is compare it with nature ,experiment, experience.If it does not agree with nature ,experiment experience then it is wrong it is that simple that is all there is to it '' so now using that brilliant man,s scientific method look at the climate models.The ''hockey stick graph of M Mann Look at the predictions of Al Gore.They are all wrong .Not just a little bit wrong but wildly so.So michaelq you need to doubt your sources of climate science not my punctuation ,that just proves how you look in the wrong places for the truth and listen to those who tell lies the loudest
The immediate mention of "fossil fuels" reveals your indoctrination.
Investigate beyond the bizarre interpretations of the UN and their "Pravda" IPCC policy committee and read what climate scientists ACTUALLY conclude in AR5. – see below..
“Based on model results there is limited confidence in the predictability of yearly to decadal averages of temperature both for the global average and for some geographical regions. Multi-model results for precipitation indicate a generally low predictability. Short-term climate projection is also limited by the uncertainty in projections of natural forcing.”
Similar comments are declared re the polar regions, ice, sea levels, storms etc yet are buried in the Technical Section under key Uncertainties instead of being front and centre on page 1.

You should find a big market for your book given this wilful ignorance although the word "catastrophe" has become verbotten. Using the acronym CAGW is guaranteed to invoke screams of "NO SCIENTIST EVER USED THE WORD CATASTROPHE!!!!!" replete with spit, bile and red faced blustering as every vein in their empty skull is strained
But how would you know if their ACTUAL words are always hidden.???
Brilliant idea.
