The demonstrations were also endorsed by Rajendra K. Pachauri, the
chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and Desmond M. Tutu, the former leader of the Anglican Church in South Africa. Mr. McKibben of 350.org said it was up to national leaders to assume a moral obligation to match their actions to the science. On Saturday, as the pictures flowed in via e-mail and the Web, he noted that there were hardly any showing celebrities or officials. “Ordinary people are just haunted by this,” he said. “Now they’re saying one thing very loudly, and very beautifully.” Gavin A. Schmidt, a climate scientist who works with Dr. Hansen and manages a popular blog on climate science, realclimate.org, said those promoting 350 or debating the number might be missing the point. “The situation is analogous to people trying to embark on a cross- country road trip to California, but they’ve started off heading to Maine instead,” Dr. Schmidt said. “But instead of working out ways to turn around, they have decided to argue about where they are going to park when they get to L.A.” |
