Adams Sacks at Grist.com has finally come out of the climate activist's closet and publicly admitted what the activists really desire but were not willing to admit before.

We must turn our backs on the last 10,000 years of human development. We must revert back to being hunters and gatherers... in other words he actually says we must go back to a cave man existence for the sake of 'sustainability.'

Now... when you hear the climate activists speak of 'sustainability' you will know what they are really talking about.

....We must leave behind 10,000 years of civilization; this may be the hardest collective task we’ve ever faced. It has given us the intoxicating power to create planetary changes in 200 years that under natural cycles require hundreds of thousands or millions of years—but none of the wisdom necessary to keep this Pandora’s Box tightly shut. We have to discover and re-discover other ways of living on earth.

We love our cars, our electricity, our iPods, our theme parks, our bananas, our Nikes, and our nukes, but we behave as if we understand nothing of the land and water and air that gives us life. It is past time to think and act differently.

If we live at all, we will have to figure out how to live locally and sustainably. Living locally means we are able get everything we need within walking (or animal riding) distance. We may eventually figure out sustainable ways of moving beyond those small circles to bring things home, but our track record isn’t good and we’d better think it through very carefully.

Likewise, any technology has to be locally based, using local resources and accessible tools, renewable and non-toxic. We have much re-thinking to do, and re-learning from our hunter-gatherer forebears who managed to survive for a couple of hundred thousand years in ways that we with our civilized blinders we can barely imagine or understand....

We all better start looking for a cave... uhhhh... how many caves are there?
