Something that's actually good

It's hard to pick out which parts of Naomi Klein's radically superb article in the Nation I like the most, but here's two for starters:
  • '...climate change isn’t “the issue.” In fact, it isn’t an issue at all. Climate change is a message, one that is telling us that many of our culture’s most cherished ideas are no longer viable.'
  • '... the [climate deniers] may be in considerably less denial than a lot of professional environmentalists, the ones who paint a picture of global warming Armageddon, then assure us that we can avert catastrophe by buying “green” products and creating clever markets in pollution.'
