al gore lies his head off?

Question

I m not asking one i'm tell you all that al gore lies. Has anyone
been to Antarctica? I dought it. Well I have and when the 2 miles of packed snow and ice starts to melt then i may worry. You see what Gore forgot to mention that each summer the ice around Antarctica melts, NOT all of it just some and in winter it comes back again and sometimes more freezes. Now if Gore wants to get his facts straight tell im to go there and spend a winter. Globale warming is all a pile a crap. The earth goes through these temp changes. It has for millinia and it always will . As for the gasses causing globale warming thats a crock because if it was as he said, then answer me this. Combustions engines were not invented till the late 1800 and what he is saying is that in less than 100+ we have almost destroyed the atmosphere. Common people get a grip. If thats the case then we should be out of time by now. The earth is not going to blow up or fry us for a hell of a long time. If ever. Grow up. and live.

Answer 1

Al Gore has nothing at all to do with the science behind global warming. He is in no way responsible for any of the solid data about global warming. He is not singlehandedly causing global warming. He's just an actor.

And his message is backed by 99+% of all scientists. They may disagree on some of the details, but not on the basic message. Global warming is real, it's not natural, it's caused by us. And it is a serious threat to our country.

Here's some solid information about the basic scientific agreement on global warming and just a little of the data underlying it.

Not from some environmental extremists, but from the most respected scientific organizations in the world. Practically every scientific organization publicly supports the reality of global warming.

Talking about Al Gore in the face of the threat is silly. The people quoted below are hardly fans of Al Gore, but they don't make that mistake. They don't get their information from "An Inconvenient Truth", they get it from the best scientists in the world. None of these people are fools, or environmental crazies. You may not respect them all, but surely you respect some.

"The science of global warming is clear. We know enough to act now. We must act now."

James Rogers, CEO of Charlotte-based Duke Energy.

"The overwhelming majority of atmospheric scientists around the world and our own National Academy of Sciences are in essential agreement on the facts of global warming and the significant contribution of human activity to that trend."

Russell E. Train, Republican, former environmental official under Presidents Nixon and Ford

"We simply must do everything we can in our power to slow down global warming before it is too late. The science is clear. The global warming debate is over."

Arnold Schwarzenegger, Republican, Governor, California

"Our nation has both an obligation and self-interest in facing head-on the serious environmental, economic and national security threat posed by global warming."

John McCain, Republican, Senator, Arizona

"These technologies will help us become better stewards of the environment - and they will help us to confront the serious challenge of global climate change."

President George Bush

Answer 2

Which parts of Antarctica have you been to? Maybe we've been to the same places.

You don't know much about climate change do you? The tone and content of your writing makes this apparent.

There is no disputing that global warming is real - even the Bush Administration and EVERY major oil company in the world now accepts it (don't believe me? Then visit a few oil company websites and see what they have to say about climate change).

If you honestly maintain that 'Globale warming is all a pile a crap' then you're in a very small minority with no political allies and very few commercial allies. The world has woken up and accepts global warming is reality. There is debate as to just how much is attributable to anthropogenic causes but the fundamental question as to whether global warming is real was established without doubt many years ago.

I would go through every aspect of your question and systematically disprove it but alas, it would do no good as you appear to have a mindset that no amount of common sense of proven scientific fact is going to alter.

Regardless as to anything Al Gore said, I do think it's interesting that you accuse him of not getting his facts straight, you should get your own house in order first.

Answer 3

Your degree of ignorance knows no bounds. The vast majority of the scientific community agree that global warming is in full swing . . . and not the "natural cycle" stuff you are referring to. The melting of the polar ice caps, the melting of the permafrost, the melting of Greenland are all well-documented by scientific evidence and all of these scientific investigations have taken into consideration the natural part of the phenomenon.

You really ought to expand your knowledge base by reading more intelligent articles, preferrably the scientific journals and not the local media pap that you so obviously favor.

Answer 4

have you ever seen the climate comments for the jap states? we've in basic terms dug out of one iciness hurricane and we've yet another one on the way. Al won't come back out till it warms up he won't freeze his azz off. hi perhaps he can leap on the band wagon for international cooling and the arriving ice age that the comparable people advised us replaced into on it is way and whilst people caught directly to that con. they became to international warming.
