   “The only old person they should listen to is him. Had people listened to him twenty years ago, Manhattan wouldn’t be underwater now.”

     They were printed on recycled paper which requires more energy than using virgin wood grown on tree farms by paper suppliers.
     Paper is a renewable resource and is biodegradable in landfills However using recycled paper products for Cellulose Insulation has advantages over fiberglass batting.

   Interesting that he doesn’t want questions from old people. I wonder if it’s because older people might not have been ‘educated’ properly in environmental matters as per the following 1977 UN document:
   http://unesdoc.unesco.org/images/0003/000327/032763eo.pdf

   Some excerpts:
   “Environmental education was essential for integrating the knowledge generated by important recent conferences of the United Nations system and was also important for development issues and the establishment of a new international order.”
   Page 6

   “It is probably in the field of adult education that the most important developments will occur. Here the mass media play an important role in the promotion of environmental education: press, radio, films and television {and, similarly, competitions, festivals or even “environment days”}, which constitution ideal media for reaching the widest possible audience. The media can and should prepare, launch and conduct a whole series of campaigns in support of environmental education. Cleaning-up campaigns, the systematic removal of domestic refuse, demonstration campaigns, etc. are calculated to attract people’s attention and tush stimulate their environmental awareness. ”
   Page 21

   “A further basic aim of environmental education is clearly to show the economic, political and ecological interdependence of the modern world, in which decisions and actions by the different countries can have international repercussions. Environment should, in this regard, help to develop a sense of responsibility and solidarity among countries and regions as the foundation for a new international order which will guarantee the conservation and improvement of the environment.”
   Page 25

   “The Soviet Union gives its active support to international action aimed at solving environmental problems and problems concerning the rational use of natural resources, since we are convinced that such action is conducive to the achievement of the aims set forth in the Charter of the United Nations and reasserted in the Final Act of the Conference on Security and Co-operation in Europe.”

   Hansen’s appeal to kids can be found in his strong resemblance to the affable Homer Simpson.
