Climate Progress: An insider's view of climate science, politics, and
solutions

Over 100,000 rally for climate and clean energy action

Washington Post downplays this amazing show of support
April 26, 2010

In its main environmental story today –  “On
climate bill, Democrats work to overcome Graham’s immigration objections” —
the WashPost said:

In some ways, the problem that proponents of climate legislation face is
that they’re pursuing a policy goal that is not much of a
hot-button political issue. Environmental activists had a
well-attended event Sunday on the Mall, with musical stars
Sting and John Legend, but immigration reform advocates are likely to dwarf
that turnout with dozens of rallies across the country
Saturday.

Yes, the biggest single climate rally in U.S. history is dismissed by
comparison with the hypothetical cumulative turnout of dozens of future rallies
on immigration.  Who says the media isn’t fair?  Apparently preserving
the health and well-being of countless future generations isn’t “hot-button”
enough for the media to be interested [kind of an ironic phrase, considering the
rally was for action of global warming].

The “problem” for the White House (and Senate Majority Leader Reid)
is that if they push immigration first, they kill both bills — knowingly — and
they break a long-standing (and oft-repeated) commitment to three major
constituencies:  environmentalists, clean energy types (like me), and young
voters.

I am not an immigration analyst, so let me quote The
New Republic’s Jonathan Chait from Friday, writing about the
possibility that “Senate Democratic leaders have decided to try to put
immigration reform first on the agenda”:

This strikes me as a terrible idea. First of all, climate legislation is
just plain more important than immigration reform. The latter is important,
but the former is dire. Given that Republicans may well take control of the
House in November, and could easily hold it for a long time, this year could
literally be the last chance to pass climate legislation, however
watered down.

Now, I suppose I could be persuaded of the merits of this move if it seemed
clear that the climate bill had little chance to pass and immigration stood a
great chance to pass. But this does not seem to be the case….

It’s true that immigration splits the GOP. But it also splits the
Democrats, who have a lot of members representing heavily white, working-class
areas. Increasing the political salience of immigration at a time when
unemployment is over 9% does not seem like a good strategy to help them. Also
keep in mind that the House has already passed a climate bill, but hasn’t
passed an immigration bill.

Indeed, Politico persuasively suggests
that the cost of shelving climate for immigration is probably to kill
both….

If this is Reid’s decision, the White House needs to come down hard on him.
It’s outrageous to sacrifice a chance to make progress on the biggest single
policy challenge merely to increase the reelection chances of one Senator.
This episode also shows, again, why it’s a bad idea to have your Senate leader
hail from a state that leans toward the opposing party.

There’s some good background on the timeline of events from Brad Johnson’s WR
post, “Whisper Campaign Derails Climate Bill Rollout.”  I’ll have
more to say about Graham’s role shortly.

Finally, for those who want to read about the Earth Day event in the
WashPost, you have to go to the Style section, “Earth
Day’s moment in the sun,” which has some great pictures,
like the one above.  I’ll post more on the event when I get the
videos.  Earth Day Network put the crowd over 150,000 and others gave me a
similar number.

I’ve given up on fair coverage from newspapers. Their editors seem to have
followed the same instructions as screenwriter guides: “Always find a way to
put conflict into the story”. For them, that can only mean people like the
Post’s George Will against legitimate scientists. Their advertisers and
wealthy investors are pulling the strings.

The mainstream media, including network television, are just making
themselves irrelevant with this kind of non coverage. People will increasingly
go to internet resources like this one to find out what is going on.

I won’t miss MSM. Papers kill too many trees, and anchors like Charles
Gibson are becoming even more of a joke.

I’m curious as to why you would be critical of Juliet Eilperin and the
Washington Post, considering they have been reasonably friendly to the
environmental community. I understand the point you are making with regard to
their classification of the turnout, but the Post is by no means the only
outlet to have covered this; how did others view the numbers?

God, they don’t get it. Were in the midst of basically an all out emergency
affecting global civilization and were sitting around having tea.

Some more depressing human behavior… UK follows Obama’s lead to develop
local oil reserves rather than aggressively pursue sustainable solutions. This
is a reaction by these governments to peak oil which is here and now.

coverage.

Well, this is what we get with a capitalist mass media.  The (lack of)
response to climate change reveals how little ideological difference there is
between the foxes and the sheepdogs.

However, I agree with the comment by Dorothy and the comment by David Benson.
I also agree with these EPA
experts in their opposition to the Waxman-Markey bill.

Why must a clean energy economy always be tied to Climate Change in some
people’s minds? A perfectly good case for moving to clean, domestic energy can
be made from the perspective of national security and domestic prosperity. I
realized that through my volunteer efforts with the Pickens plan.

Boone Pickens rarely mentions Climate Change or Cap and Trade. When I
started blogging on the Plan website I saw that the community of supporters
there was made up of a wide range of people from environmentalists to pretty
right wing politicos. So I wrote about green energy in terms of national
security, energy independence and basic free market capitalism. In doing so I
soon realized that the right will get behind a clean energy economy just as
quickly as the left when it is presented in terms that resonate with their
beliefs.

Climate Change has indeed been made into a “hot button” topic and as such
it stands in the way of any real progress being made. I think that mainstream
America needs to understand that clean energy is good for America, good for
our economy, good for our future no matter what anyone thinks of Climate
Change. If we get to that point again I think we can move forward once
more.

Mike that’s true. Key media people are not much concerned – but this is
about to change. Just look at the uptake of natural phenomenon and how this
threatens everybody’s buisness as usal.

We have reached a critical mass, currently only hindered by the threat of
old habits and technologies. Those who adapt will be the new key figures of
the 21st century. Survival of the fittest ( Darwin meant it as a metaphor for
“better adapted for immediate, local environment” ).

Since the industrial revolution up till today we changed the stable state
of the environment, where the term survival of the fittest means now to adapt
to the local environment and preserve it’s state from a global perspective –
to prevent further climate imbalance and the risc of civilization breakdown.

If we do not act accordingly we likely end up with a diffrent climate
state. The goal is to preserve the equilibrium climate state we had during the
begin of the holocene. Human impacts on our habitat – earth ecosystem’s has
become to strong. And cleaning up this mess is the greatest task in human
history.

And that’s why we need comprehensive climate bill’s, worldwide.

For what it’s worth, I noticed this morning that the Washington Post is on
the same city block as the American Chemical Society.  I wonder what the
odds are that anyone from the Post ever bothered to walk around the block and
pick up a copy of the ACS Public Policy Statement on Global Climate Change, updated
in January 2010.  The statement is outstanding and does not mince
words:

“The effects of projected unmitigated climate change on key Earth system
components, ecological systems and human society over the next fifty years
will be profound and, quite possibly, irreversible (IPCC, 2007).
Higher surface temperatures will severely impact many land-based life forms,
damaging vulnerable ecosystems and endangering key plant and animal
species.  Sea level is rising and the ocean is acidifying; the first
threatens coastal habitations and ecosystems, the second will have profound
effects on marine ecosystems.  Snowfall and snowmelt patterns are
changing and rainfall patterns may also be unstable, threatening fresh water
supplies in vulnerable regions.  Increases in severe weather events are
very likely, with increasing damage due to floods, drought, and heat
waves.  We are, in effect, in the midst of a vast experiment with
the Earth’s climate – with uncertain, but likely quite unpleasant,
outcomes.”  [emphasis added]

Among their many recommendations:

“The U.S. should immediately adopt nationwide goals for rapid and deep
reductions in CO2 and other greenhouse gas emissions and develop effective
economic drivers to achieve these goals.  Options such as emission cap
and trade regimes, carbon taxes, or emissions taxes need to be devised,
tested and implemented on a national basis.”

What part of “immediately” do the Washington Post editors not grasp??

I Was There (a mini report), and The Washington Post, and Some Very
Dedicated Folks, and A Poetic Polar Bear, and Bob Weir playing “Ripple”, and
and and and …

I too am dramatically disappointed in The Post’s coverage of the event,
with one exception, and at least (it must be said) The Post covered the event:
The New York Times doesn’t even mention the event in today’s paper, as far as
I can tell.

The exception: Bravo to The Post (and to Roger, Susan, and Geneva) for the
photo on Page C1.

Yes, it’s a small world. It was only Thursday, on actual Earth Day, that
Roger, Susan, Geneva, and a few others held a permitted event in front of the
White House, with the Earth Ball and polar bear suit and all. Bravo to Roger
and Susan and GWEN! Then, it was Thursday evening, after that event, that Joe
— yes, Joe Romm himself — kindly joined us for dinner before going on national
TV. And now, only several days later, Geneva and the Earth Ball and the polar
bear suit, and Susan and the coal plant suit, and Roger, are in living color
in a photo in The Washington Post.

But back to the poor coverage: The lineup of speakers was AMAZING, and each
gave a very sincere and informative talk. My goodness: World-renowned (and
courageous) scientists, literary giants, dedicated labor leaders, leading
activists, international politicians, key leaders within the government,
Robert Kennedy Jr., spiritual leaders, and on and on. Amazing. And hardly any
of them were even mentioned in The Post?!

I’d buy a book, tomorrow, if it contained the transcripts of each and every
talk. The speakers were amazing. All of humankind should pay attention to
their words!

(One tip to the organizers: Please ask the sound folks to NOT do sound
checks — of drums, microphones, guitars, and etc. — in preparation for the
next band, while the most conscientious scientists and spiritual leaders on
the planet are trying to give their heart-felt words to the public! It gets
deeply frustrating when someone is banging on the drums while folks like James
Hansen and etc. are trying to speak.)

On an amazingly good note: Bob Weir sang “Ripple”! What more can I say??

(Well, a bit …)

That Polar Bear — who was also a Polar Bear on Thursday at the event in
front of the White House — is the most poetic and energetic Polar Bear one can
imagine. She writes great and relevant poetry — (they call it something else
these days, but to me it’s rhythmic poetry) — and expresses the youthful
energy that the world needs now!

Yes, as we know, the world needs that youthful energy NOW!

Joe, I really do suggest that you get your hands on Geneva’s (the Polar
Bear’s) poetry and run it in a guest piece. She is a GREAT example of the
human energy and concern and creativity and “don’t stand for inaction!” that
the youthful generations should be expressing — in the tens of millions.

Well, that’s my own mini-report on the event, for now. I do hope that
someone publishes (on the web at least) the comments from all the GREAT
speakers — and thanks to those speakers for coming!!

(I may add a few comments, later, about a few things: Although I loudly
applaud James Cameron for his views and time and passionate efforts, I may
offer a question or concern about the fact that he makes money for Fox and
thus for NewsCorp. And, did he ever actually introduce his wife?? It’s usually
a great idea to introduce your wife if she accompanies you to the podium.
Also, if that was a person from P&G at the event, reiterating the
important point about washing clothes in cold water, and sending P&G’s
best wishes to the crowd, I’d like to ask him whether P&G has stopped
advertising in all media owned by NewsCorp. So, if time allows, I’ll raise
some concerns about what I think I saw and heard yesterday, for what they’re
worth.)

Be Well,

Jeff

Mike (#8),

Climate change is the reason for urgency. Were it not for greenhouse gases,
we might be working on mercury from coal and better mining practices. Remember
that renewable energy got its start as an energy independence thing. We could
let that just move forward on an economic timescale, gradually replacing
fossil fuels as it became the most economic method of replacing old
generation. It is climate change that requires us to cut fossil fuel use, not
just make it cleaner. It may well be that closing coal plants before they have
paid for themselves will cost less in the long run regardless of avoided
adaptation costs, but that is not how utilities would typically treat sunk
costs. Climate legislation can force that. It will very likely cost less in
the long run to shift to electric transportation as quickly as possible even
though people won’t always appreciate paying for the early battery models.
Stronger CAFE standards can force that. But, without California’s climate
push, we would still see stagnated standards. Shifting to renewables is
inevitable because they have a higher ratio of energy returned-to-energy
invested than anything else and everything else will run out. But that shift
does not have to come quickly even if it would bring more prosperity if it
did. Without climate change as an issue, you would see even stronger
resistance from the auto and fossil fuel industries that you do now.

Amazing, they don’t cover 100,000 people assembling from the left or on a
leftist cause but if three hundred teabaggers show up they report like it was
100,000 and talk about how they are taking their country back. The mainstream
media in this country has a definite right wing agenda, always have had,
always will. This is the reason why we can’t end war, defuse the military
industrial complex, reform the health insurance system, obtain systemic
financial reform or get any of the other changes that many in this country
demand. And in spite of these kinds of systemic mainstream media boycotts and
dismissals of the left people in this country actually have the nerve to talk
about the control of the media in other places and tout our freedom of the
press.

Freedom of the press only counts if you are actually reporting something
that angers the power that be, not if you are licking the boots of the powers
that be. That isn’t freedom of the press that is control of the press. At
least those in other places know that they have state controlled media, we are
sold a lie and treated like we are too stupid to know any better. If
advertisers are angered by a story that story must be minimized, downplayed,
degraded or denigrated.

No one carried signs ? Well, maybe the environmental folks didn’t want to
look like “Tea Baggers”. That said, if the Tea Bag Party were to show up
anywhere in any amount, FOX news would have some sponsorship in it. That would
have forced ABC to come out as well.

On a similar note, I am a member of several environmental groups – Sierra,
UCS, NRDC CBD and had no notice anyone was doing anything this weekend.

Who were these people ?

Many years ago, I became for the first time deeply involved in politics,
for the Nuclear Freeze movement in response to Reagan’s “Star Wars.” I was
pregnant with my first child when the Three Mile Island accident occurred, and
I was scared to death about nuclear weapons, waste, and power plant leaks.

Reagan came to Whitehouse New Jersey for a rally, an obscure little town
with a name he liked. My fellow activists and I sat in the center of the
bleachers, politely and quietly hoisting our big banner. When I got home in
the evening, I tuned into the news and sure enough, there was coverage of the
event. The camera panned across the spectators, abruptly stopped when it got
to our banner, and resumed on the other side.

I got a pretty good idea then of what whores the mainstream media are. And
this new book reminds me that the concerns back then about nuclear weapons and
energy were not misplaced. It is shocking:

Earth Day Polar Bear Rap

Joe and others, yes, Wit’s End has provided (at the link in her Comment 22)
the YouTube of the Earth Day Polar Bear Rap. Indeed, the Polar Bear delivered
this rap on the genuine Earth Day in the park right in front of the genuine
White House, with great genuine-ness, all in accordance with a genuine
seven-page permit that was obtained by the very genuine GWEN organization.

And as we have now all (hopefully) seen, the very same Polar Bear (and
friends, with the Earth Ball) was captured in a great photo in the Washington
Post today, in a picture from Sunday’s event. Indeed, this is the most
talented, poetic, famous, walking-talking-rapping Polar Bear the world has
likely ever seen. She probably can’t catch fish with her bare hands, but she
has a vital message to convey!

What I think is great — in addition to the poetry and delivery — is this
example of the youthful energy, leadership, and courage demonstrated by this
Polar Bear Person. Imagine this: She came from another State. She wrote raps
and poetic expressions of concern and hope. She demonstrated and performed in
front of the White House, and then again on The Mall on Sunday. She is joining
one of the ongoing climate organizations.

I think that the media should give genuine youth a platform to speak out,
to insist on their rights, and to remind us of the future and of what life is
about. I, for one, am tired of the arguing talking heads on TV who, more often
than not, entangle themselves in the political game-playing and staged
ideological argumentation. Let’s have freshness and genuine-ness, not
phoney-ness (spelling?) and politicalness, or whatever.

Anyhow, that’s it for now.

Cheers,

Jeff

and etc., A HUGE thank you for your thoughtful and kind support of GWEN’s
Earth Day Citizens’ Climate Congress in front of the White House on the 22nd.
Jeff deserves special recognition for coming to DC from afar, not to mention
the others who came from MA, NJ and elsewhere!

Yes, Geneva did her generation proud with her rap, and with the chants she
wrote for our rally, urging President Obama to inform and lead millions of
misinformed Americans about the very real, vital and urgent risks and
opportunities associated with climate change. My favorite three Geneva climate
chants, good for all occassions, are:

Hey Obama, lead the nation
Give us climate education!

Climate change, hey it’s a fact
Get up–Speak Out!–it’s time to act!

We’re sick and tired of corporate greed
Come on, Obama, it’s time to
lead!

Now we need to get 100,000 youth, or more, to chant these chants at Obama’s
door!
