We better hurry back to the stone age otherwise not only our glaciers will be gone so too will the glaciers of Mars!
A couple of serious comments now.
Global warming is happening, but as I indicate above it is happening on Mars too, are we to blame for that? No.
Movies and the like make it out to be the people of a given city will be asleep and all of a sudden the ocean will come crashing in on their 40th floor apartment, it is all a gradual process (unless a comet or meteor falls into the oceans) and we can and WILL adapt.
It is a fact that in the past the earth's climate has swung from hot to cold and back. Which climatic period is the correct one? Seems to me many make the correct climatic to the climate as it was in the '60s.
Another interesting thing and you gotta give Big Bill a whole lot of credit for it. Kyoto was current in his administration, his administration signed the darned thing BUT never presented it to the Senate for ratification. Nope, he left that one to his successor. I do not think he miscalculated thinking AlG would win, I just don't think he wanted to the one going down in history as dumping our economy into the ocean with a millstone around its neck.

because they are giving money a higher priority than the global warming or have never checked for themselves whether it is true or not. Those who deny it, for example have never checked the Union of concerned Scientists, scientists from many other countries around the world, or have some reason to wish it not true - like Michigan who depends upon the sales of cars which contribute to the problem so rather than change the cars they deny the warming. A scientist may also deny global warming because he will get publicity for his opinion from those who wish it not true.
Of course, in this country where lobbyists buy votes by various means, a company can supply enough money to get the politician to endorse his point of view, right or wrong, and other countries leaders are just as corrupt. a example of that corruptness is the case of the Snake River dams where everyone but the power company stated the dams needed to be removed to protect the salmon and fishing rights but the power company was able to buy enough votes to keep this fight going on for some 25 years now.
Certainly a part of global warming may be natural but mankind is making that worse and to deny that is akin to building a cabin on the side of an shaking mountain because no one sees the lava actually escaping yet. By the time you actually see the lava it will be too late as we saw with Mt. St. Helens

Pollution is polluting the politics
Whites paint the yellow/brown as black, while
Black are sure it is the whites who be painted black
white say occean temperature and level will rise submerging the coastal habitation , while on the other hand emission partculates will cause cold winter . The contradictory statement are made to push newly developed technologies in to the developing nations for own economic benefits
It is not politics but politico -economics

People can see the truth and still not believe-they are so mental and too involved with showing off. People don't need to know 250 million Africans will be relocated for water and the U.S southern states are fighting for the water that is drying up at alarming rates-the war for water would be devastating!

the problem IS big, but we aren't the main cause for it.... more affective is certain "emissions" from cows than our cars... jeez
also mother earth has already begun work to counteract the effect... there have been discovered new aquatic organisms that replace ozone into the atmosphere...
Gore's movie is a load of bull... anyone who knows anything about global warming will tell you that. Why would you believe a politician anyway... obviously he shows his side of things only.

I think that they worry about the cost to change for a better climate.I have been looking at all the different fuel and energy options that exist (and thats just what I know about) and I think that once everything is changed so we can clear the air and look after our mother earth and all life, Then it would benefit everyone,then it would pay for itself in many ways ay.
I think that one of the biggest problems is the way of politics is old and living in the past,we need fresh thinkers with fresh ideas for the future now not 20 to 50 years into the future. "NOW"

There was nothing in the "Inconvenient Truth" that would make it a documentary unless filming Gore talking is documenting something. Gore is a politician with a far left agenda. He is not a scientist and has no scientific background. He does not practice what he preaches. Don't fall for for his message.

There are too many mistakes in his movie, and things are not that simple: all is not "black & white". Personaly I think this movie makes more sense, its a documentary of the BBC "Global Dimming": http://worldexplor.blogspot.com/2007/10/global-dimming.html
