Al Gore is promoting a string of concerts worldwide on 07/07/07 to make us aware of Global Warming (GW). Ummm... can you name one person who isn't aware of global warming?
If you ask me, it's a nice little earner. Al Gore has jumped on the GW bandwagon and is getting rich from it. First with his film, now with these concerts as Bob Geldof and his cronies did.
It is ironic, considering the Earth heating up has nothing to do with human CO2 emmisions. He must be laughing all the way to the bank!!

Please have a look through this website... read it and give your opinion. Please no environmentalist zealots. Check out both sides of the story before making judgements and remember the global press can make you believe anything and money is an excellant motivator!

As you say, I'm sure that everyone is aware of global warming but then so too, everyone is aware of cancer, AIDS and famine. There are benefit concerts for these issues as well in order to raise awareness and to educate people. The objective of the GW concerts will be the same.
You state that the Earth heating up has nothing to do with human CO2 emissions. How then do you explain that the planet has an equable temperature and is inhabitable. With no CO2 and other greenhouse gases our planet would have a climate similar to that of the moon. How can natural greenhouse gases warm the planet but not the manmade ones - they're the same gases.
As for your last paragraph - I'm not an environmental zealot I'm a qualified scientist, I have spent more than 20 years studying both sides of the story, I don't make judgements I form opiniuons and make decisions based on evidence and facts, I ignore the popular press because it's often biased one way or another and if I wanted money I wouldn't be in climatology I'd be in pharmacuticals, medicine, defense, petrochemicals etc.
You advise that the global press can make people believe anything yet you cite a link to a media programme, you advise that money is an excellent motivator and your link is to a programme produced with the primary objective of causing controversy and making money for the producer - Martin Durkin.
Remember, I form opinions based on evidence and fact. My opinion about The Great Global Warming Swindle - utter garbage.
I could go through it almost sentence by sentence and show just how distorted and concocted it is but you wouldn't listen. You've demonstrated via your line of questioning that you're prepared to accept as fact those things that conform to your viewpoint but dismiss as fallacy anything that doesn't. A closed mind learns nothing.

Thats a joke considering the US is the prime culprit for polution, hes a **** anyway, I hope no-one buys a ticket. All the fumes for travel used to get to the concerts will add to GW, all pathetic.

Yeah...I don't think you're going to change any minds among the alarmist group. The only time you see any flux is when they update the gristmill site.
