Virtual Museum of Bacteria. Bacterial Growth and Multiplication. InnerSuper. Scientists finally get angry about indifference to climate change. James Hansen never expected to become a radical activist at the age of 65.
He is a grandfather who loves nothing more than exploring nature with his grandchildren. He holds down a respectable job as the director of Nasa's Goddard Institute for Space Studies. But he is 70 now, and he has a police record.

Hansen is the climate scientist's climate scientist.
