I agree that the US is dragging its feet and I am ashamed that the US is not taking a leadership role. We deserved all the derision that can come from this.
However an extremist viewpoint never (never, ever, EVER) solves anything. How will "millions die" (I have to assume that he means "millions more" dying specifically due to climate change rather than the actual millions that will die from old-age by the end of the century)? The science definitely supports humans as an instrument of climate change. It even logically supports some catastrophic result models... but they're far from the mainstream view. The science is strong that we're having an effect... the science is much less clear about the end results of that effect. The article certainly doesn't clear any of that up: the statement is made with no support whatsoever. The caterwauling of "millions to die!" provides nothing but fodder for those who want nothing more than to paint environmentalists as screeching, paranoid boobs with no practical understanding of the world around them.
