would citgo be one of those oil interests so vigorously spending against the global chaos theory. hmmm?
"There is absolutely no disagreement in the scientific community, global warming is occuring and is getting worse."
Really, did you ask every scientist? You must have a very free schudule. Are you on the public dole perhaps?

He may in fact be a crack smoking dupe for the econazis. I never thought of it that way. However, global warming is a gradual average change that usually would not be noticed on a day to day basis. It's for real but so far there is no proof that man has caused it by his industry. What caused it all the other times in the world's history that we had global warming? We do know that the sun is giving off more thermal energy than usual. There is nothing we can do about that.
If it is ever figured out it won't be because of algore. He's a moron.

I hate to break it to you, but the only country in the world that has any denial of global warming is America, funnily enough also the same country that houses those who deny other science, such as geology and evolution.
Global temperatures ARE increasing rapidly in line with carbon emissions, global sea levels ARE rising, and the oceans ARE becoming more acidic. Most of the 'science' that argues against global warming is funded by oil companies and other big CO2 producers.
It is true that global temperatures rise and fall, but now temperatures have risen to much higher than at any other time in history, and has sharply curved after the industrial revolution.
It seems to me that a country pumping out CO2 more than any other in the world would have more interest in the matter than a scientist earning less than a teacher's salary.
There is absolutely no disagreement in the scientific community, global warming is occuring and is getting worse.
Hate to burst tour bubble there, but I'm not doing it to insult you, this is the world at stake here!!

It is seemingly a casual overlook by lesser minds to conclude that "global" should apply universally locally.
The key word here is "global", that means the average on the whole planet. And one consequence of global warming is to accentuate the differences, i.e. that summers could be warmer, but that winter could get colder as well for short durations in some areas.
Got that?
No, I am a well read, university postgraduate with a brain that works. What are you?

First, ad hominem attacks on Vice President Gore or anyone else are unacceptable. I am not a fan of his politics or positions myself, but everyone should be treated with respect.
But to address the implied question, short term changes in temperature are a function of weather, not climate. Recent cold weather in the Midwest U.S. does not mean that the long term global warming trend has stopped. Similarly, the unusually warm weather in the same location a few months ago does not prove that it is accelerating.

Al Gore is no moron. He is making a fortune from the global warming racket. If he actually believes what he is selling, then he is fekkin moron. For the people who have paid for his nonsense "HE PLAYED ON (YOUR) FEARS!"
It is sheer arrogance on the part of liberals to think that humans can facilitate climate change. It is an extension of their thinking that they can effect change in human behavior through their social programs. The very logic is foolish: "Let's give people money so they will want to go out, get a job, and make their own money." Nonsense.

Right. Why don't you go ask the people in India who break heat records every summer. Who have had many deaths from temperatures up to 125 degrees. And many of them DON"T have air conditioning.
Why don't you ask the people who depend on the water from glacially provided streams that are running dry? More than (I think it was) 2/3rds of the worlds population depends on water from these sources.
Before you knock Al Gore's movie, WATCH IT. Okay. Whether it makes you boiling mad, whether it changes your mind or not. You cannot ever knock a source before you check it out.

Al Gore is right.
But what was he doing as VP for 8 years - amazing how wise your politicos get when they are out of power!

The temperature in one place at one time has nothing to do with climate or climate change. It's weather.

Hey, yeah, you're right! Plus, what is with these rumors about 'night' coming? I mean, I'm looking outside, and the sun's out. People will believe anything!
