if global warming was real?

Question

wouldn't al gore not drive as gas guzzling car, or have such a high engery bill. i mean if you promote a casue that exist you should at least go along with that casue.

Answer 1

Al Gore is irrelevant. The fact that Al Gore is hypocritical is irrelevant.

What's relevant is the science, which tells us that the current global warming is real and primarily caused by humans.

Feel free to criticize Al Gore, but that doesn't tell you anything about global warming. It tells you about Al Gore.

Answer 2

Thank you! You get a star! It looks like you were smart and actually did research into it like I did rather then believing someone like Gore who just wants money and fame. One big thing is that global warming is supposedly from us emitting all the bad stuff in the air from cars and such, yet a group of students from Harvard did a study that found that it was hotter back in the medieval times then it is now. And they didn't have cars or any of the stuff we have now back then!

Not to mention, people though we were going into an ice age about 100 years ago.

Answer 3

Global warming is real, 10,000 years ago the polar icecap extended all the way down to the interstate highway 90, just west of Missoula, Montana. That Glacier receded over the course of a couple thousand years, without any intervention by man, except for a few campfires. The thing about it that is unknown, especially by Mr. Gore, is, to what extent, if any, man might influence the warming trend?

Answer 4

Ok, so some people are hypocrites. It doesn't lessen the issue of global warming. And let us talk not about how the planet is being affected as many can't seem to swallow that pill.

Let us instead talk about economics: Oil is getting more scarce and thus more expensive, coal is getting more scarce and thus more expensive, natural gas is getting more scarce and thus more expensive, are you seeing my point yet? We need to move to renewable resources or we will price ourselves into poverty.

And as for the nuclear thing... good god give me a break. How many more areas do we need to make uninhabitable before we realize that we can't manage it? That we have absolutely no way of neutralizing the waste?

Lets talk about solar, where every person puts panels on their houses and powers themselves. Extra power can be sold to the power company and used to power shadier places like cities. Why isn't this in the government propaganda? Because the citizens' measly pocketbooks can't buy the time - i.e. no big corporation will benifit thus it doesn't help the candidate's campaign bill.

Stepping off my soapbox...

Answer 5

ridiculous
as if Al Gore IS global warming
all the guy has done is point it out to 2 billion people that it exists,what ever he does or not does ,does not affect the reality of it

i tell kids not to drink
do you mean i must stop that, because i like a beer my self
get real

you have to come up with a stronger case to disprove Global warming
this one is a dead horse ,stop flogging the skeleton

Answer 6

Gore might be a hypocrite but that has no bearing on the science of GW. Do what most people do - ignore Gore.

Answer 7

The most important thing is political action to replace fossil fuel plants with nuclear. What any one individual does or does not do is irrelevant.

Your statement is a "tu quo que" fallacy---a classic example of a false argument.

Answer 8

I am sorry my friend that Al Gore is right.

Answer 9

How about his Learjet. Global warming is fake, and he is just benefiting off of the government. I hate that guy. He is wasting everyones time.

Answer 10

You are right. But global warming is real, it is just a natural cycle and not man made.
