(THE BLAZE) – A progressive climate activist recently handcuffed himself to a J.P. Morgan Chase building in Los Angeles, California, to protest government and corporate inaction on climate change.
Peter Kalmus, a data scientist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California, also wept as he spoke amid the demonstration, lamenting that the earth his heading toward a "f***king catastrophe" but that no one is listening to him and others in the scientific community.

"I'm willing to take a risk for this gorgeous planet, for my sons," Kalmus said, trying to hold back tears, according to video posted on social media by the Climate Ad Project.
