[Video] Al Gore Rant: Ex-VP Gets Sweary About Climate Change

Environmental rights crusader and former Vice President Al Gore got on the defensive at a recent talk, decrying astroturfing measures and pseudoscience aimed at preventing the spread of information about climate change.
At the Aspen Institute’s “Networks and Citizenship” media panel last week, Gore angrily struck out at climate change deniers in a profanity-laden rant against a small group of people he says are “washing back at you the same crap over and over and over again” and who have made it unacceptable “to use the goddamn word ‘climate.’”
Drawing comparisons between climate change deniers and tobacco lobbyists decades ago who claimed smoking was not as harmful as we know it to be today, Gore fumed:
And some of the exact same people — I can go down a list of their names — are involved in this. And so what do they do? They pay pseudo scientists to pretend to be scientists to put out the message: ‘This climate thing, it’s nonsense. Man-made CO2 doesn’t trap heat. It may be volcanoes.’ Bullshit! ‘It may be sun spots.’ Bullshit! ‘It’s not getting warmer.’ Bullshit!
Gore also got hella pissed about what he perceives as a need to act as if the science on climate change is still being settled- saying there is no longer a “shared reality” of accepted facts from which to draw. In addition to his frustration at the situation surrounding politics and the environent, Gore weighed in on partisan wrangling over the budget- calling the idea that the issue of the budget was related to spending and not revenue (meaning repealing Bush tax cuts on the uber-wealthy) is totally “insane.”

poor dumb bastard what a shame he's so bent on making millions he don't give a dam about the enviroment if he did he would lead by example.
Aug 9, 2011
HA Al Gore is a total jackass, the number of people who believe climate change is not happening is growing and that's why this dude is so defensive about it. FYI global temperature is following sun activity exactly and these next 2-3 years the sun is expected to go through a period of higher than normal activity, so surprise it's going to get a little warmer.
Aug 9, 2011
Just think folks, if Geoge Bush did only one think right for this country it was saving us from this nut case. Algore is as crazy as a loon and there's a bunch of idiots paying him to be one.
Aug 9, 2011
He became very rich promoting the issue!
It is nice to have a mastery of the English Language–@@#$%#&*(!@#–&^%#@!
Aug 9, 2011
you better listen to this man! take heed you republican tea baqggers your time is over.
Aug 9, 2011
Al Gore is an idiot. There is no climate change that's not already normal. The climate is constantly changing. Always has and always will.
Aug 9, 2011
Al Gore knows this full well, any REAL science is a threat to his agenda.
Aug 9, 2011
Way to stay classy, Al.
Aug 9, 2011
I love it when people who use pseudo-scientist to make bogus claims attack others for using the exact same tactics. Al Gore is a joke. He's just like all the other politicians who will sacrifice common sense and true nationalism for the almighty dollar. Mr. Gore, God is in control of this place and if He wants it heated up, it'll heat up. If He wants it cold, it'll cool down. Nothing you or your lackeys can do about it. Now, you can go hug a tree and comfort yourself. Try cleaning up that mouth while your at it.
Aug 9, 2011
you Tea Party Republican idiots. Though I will be burning myself, I will be laughing my ass off as I watch you people burn. This country is filled with morons, and we deserve to fall.
Aug 9, 2011
I'm goddamm SUPER CEREAL! Excelsior!
Aug 9, 2011
You listen to him. As far as I'm concerned he's a con man who made over 100 million BSing a bunch of sheeple who belongs in jail.
Aug 9, 2011
Screw you Gore. You bitch about Global Warming but drive around and fly around the world preaching your message. I stopped driving way back in 1990 because I saw the harm we were doing to our planet by the use of fossil fuels to power our cars. I walk, ride a bike or take public transportation. I hate, absolutely hate half hearted jerks like you who run around the world decrying global climate changes when you pollute by not giving up your high priced gas guzzling cars or jet trips.
Aug 9, 2011
Jimmy Carter..Barack Obama..and Al Gore, The Larry, Moe and Shemp of Washington leadership and integrity.
WITH SINCEREST AND CONTINUING ADMIRATION OF THE INTENDED COMEDY Of L, M and S!
Aug 9, 2011
Quick someone put him in a lock box.
Aug 9, 2011
All Gore is a self obsorbed vainglorious publicity hound who cheated on his wfe! Personally, the man iS full of shit!
He takes credit for things like inventing the internet! He doesn't t know anything about technology from a hot rock! His article in "Rollimg Stomne" should be about himself retitled "Masters Of Hypocrisy"!
GO HANG YOURSELF, YOU SANCTMONOUS HICK!
Aug 9, 2011
man made prophecies, that's what we brain wash people think, true or not we r paying the consecuence from the people who rule this planet only time will tell.
Aug 9, 2011
*Relax, folks, we cannot presently do anything about the climate or weather except to get to where we feel safe, comfortable and dry. It'll be true science when we can prevent or control droughts, floods, and tornados and convert enough of the the Earth's water to fresh water as and where we need it. The human race has the potential to discover such methods and devices, and can take that path NOW! It's time to cooperate!
While we bicker about the Climate, let's strengthen our lives:
*We must first agree that every human being has equal rights to an education and training for a constructive social job, at reasonable salary.
*Next, we must ALL agree that wars ar wrong, illegal and immoral and then devote our so-called intelligence to see that everyone has enough food & water to exist with dignity and the opportunity to attend school, and have a job at a reasonable salary, to prove our worth.
*Next, we must agree that tobacco, illegal drugs and alcohol are wrong, illegal, immoral and unhalthy, then live accordingly.
*That's enough for now, s get to it!
Aug 9, 2011
Just like I said O.J., this man seeks publicity by being buddies with Leonard Di Caprio, and claiming he invented the internet. He din't deserve to win an Oscar for that stupidtly titled "An Inconvient Truth". He should be called "An Inconvenient Idiot".
Aug 9, 2011
AL GORE IS A BIG FAT LIAR! From my personal observations and research about the Global Warming Theory it is totally unbelievable and has no solid base to establish a factual proof it exists. Every observation points only to theory, no proof establishes the fact it is happening. The best I can find is that the earth goes through many cycles of colder and warmer weather which may last many years, a century , 10's of centuries and they are always changing. Nothing is solid. It is my belief that the weather and the climates are Gods personal hobby and the one thing in nature which he has never delegated out to another. He is always in charge which tells me these cycles are in Gods hands and he will be sure they do what they are designed to do. Just as dooms day whacko's try to predict the end of the world, how the world is run and the weather God only knows what the seasons will bring. The idea of not messing with "mother nature" does not compute! The plan is in place and the weather man is GOD almighty who is always about the business of keeping things in order. The destructive power with Hurricane's or Outbreaks of tornado's Snow storms or Blizzards, a beautiful spring day or a sweet shower are always just as the plan makes necessary. All is well even if we don't understand. Perhaps a big old thunderstorm is designed to get our attention and prove to us God is in charge of all that pertains to us and he will always be in charge.Be prepared. Some thongs are not for Man to figure out, somethings should not be explored and somethings should leave other things alone, AL! Gore is in it for the big money anyway. He has become filthy rich promoting this Global Warming farce, scam whatever you want to call it. They are teaching children in schools that it is true, just like they did with the big bang thing and evolution. Theory… However, they refuse to allow anything to do with God or the fact that earth was created and there is a huge historical and spiritual ledger, called the Holy Bible which documents almost every thing which happened pertaining to how the world became the world. What we see is fact not theory. The Bible tells of a savior who gave his life to save every one from sin and man decided to kill God and stop talking about Jesus. Yet, the very way time is seen is based on the death of this Jesus. Modern time is based on the year Jesus died, A.D. everything before B.C. I was taught this means Before Christ or After Death (of Christ). How important is that? Al Gore is an opportunistic pig preying on the emotions of ignorant people.
Aug 9, 2011
To those who disagree with Al Gore and that Climate Change is happening, let me ask you this. Why not do everything humanly possible to have a clean Earth? What's the worst that can happen? Cleaner air, cleaner water, cleaner food? Now, what if he's right and we don't do anything?
Aug 9, 2011
Poor Al, people are trying to take away his fame and his income. Al, tell the US Geologic Survey to put the data base back up on their website, which proves that warming and cooling happens in cycles and disproves your theory. Also, Al discuss how American Indians had a larger carbon footprint than modern man because they burned the forests to clear them for farm land.
Aug 9, 2011
The creator's greatest gift to us might be the planet. We should do all that we can to show appreiciation for that gift.
Aug 9, 2011
U fullashit…go argue with Thomas Sowell. He fulla brainsells; or the NASA scientist whose book is out using ACTUAL data from outer space for the last ten years; or the new report that shows coal being burnt by the CHINESE may actually be cooling the earth; or your own brainless moron scientist from Phildelpiaand- London who have now said they can't explain why the earth cooled.02 in the last ten years. Cheeseburger, leave the building!
Aug 9, 2011
This guy talks non-sense, the drastic climate change we see is totally natural. The world goes by patterns, the changes we see our earth has experienced before. Like the Mayas have always said, we go by cycles.
Aug 9, 2011
Tht is why you do not count!
Aug 9, 2011
I look forward to the day when men in white coats drag him away in a strait jacket!
Aug 9, 2011
Al, All you have to do in your life is try not to be such an idiot.
Aug 9, 2011
He is a nut He just wants everybody to buy his carbon credits.
Aug 9, 2011
"When objective NASA satellite data, reported in a peer-reviewed scientific journal, show a "huge discrepancy" between alarmist climate models and real-world facts, climate scientists, the media and our elected officials would be wise to take notice. Whether or not they do so will tell us a great deal about how honest the purveyors of global warming alarmism truly are." – James Taylor

Aug 9, 2011
that's another way of looking at it… I just like clean water, air and food. : )
Aug 9, 2011
So there's no global warming?
Aug 9, 2011
The only thing that's B. S. is Al Gore..Idiot..
Aug 9, 2011
This guy should be ashamed of himself the way he takes the Lords name in vain,,, Maybe some day God will damm him. If you ask me, he shows no class at all, just like the rest of those clowns in washington…….
Aug 9, 2011
Just think of the billions he'd make if they passed Cap and Trade. He's a friggin liar just like the rest of them. They want to ban the incandescent light bulb, been around over a hundred years. You drop it, it breaks, you clean it up. You take one of those "green" pig tail bulbs, drop it, and call HAZMAT. How the hell do you even discard one of those things? Al Bore needs to pull his head out of his rear.
Aug 9, 2011
Lets see in the late 80s and 90s it was global cooling, then global warming, now it is climate change. They can't make up their mind. It is just another scam by the liberals. The truth of the matter is right now it is summer and it gets warm then winter will come and it will get cold. They are pulling things out of the air so they can con us out of money.
Aug 9, 2011
china's industrial revolution , in a country of 1.3 billion people is the first and foremost to be blame for this rapid heat expansion, most of china's power is created by coal fired power plants, they now own more then half of all the worlds aembly plants , creating the garbage that we buy, we have just experienced the hotest july in recorded history , the most tornados massive drouts, massive floods, temps.in the 80's and 90's, near the artic polar bears mating with brown bears etc…you don't have to beleive, keep your mind set, or as they say make like an ostrich….,
Aug 9, 2011
I think Al needs a little climate change.
Aug 9, 2011
Jesus, I Trust In You The truth, Al Gore is a political prostitute.
He trades on the Chicago Market in Carbon credits — making millions of $$. Without the scam of global warming he is out of millions.
Aug 9, 2011
And when something happens again you guys are going to be saying Al was right. You guys don't understand, this is not political this is real. Global Warming is getting worse, and you guys are acting like if nothing is going on.
Aug 9, 2011
Amazing to think there are so many people ignorant of what climate change is all about. Of course there's change in the atmosphere throughout the centuries. But there haven't been the levels of carbon in the atmosphere ever going this high until the industrial age. People like Nicole are so clueless it's pathetic. The only thing that's causing the acceleration of carbon in the atmosphere is us. And it's not just warming, it's extreme weather events, storms, floods, and droughts. There is real science behind this. Scientists are able to take core samples from the ice caps showing the levels of various elements from thousands of years ago. Why do you think Texas has like 30 days 100 degrees and over heat in a row, and the southern half long-running droughts, floods and storms that used to be 100-year events. There are more such events in the last ten years than in the previous century. Why don't you try studying some real science instead of embarassing yourselves by parading your ignorance?
Aug 9, 2011
global warming is something natural, if there wasn't global warming we would be froze to death. However, the global warming that is constantly talked about is just part of the cycle.A week ago the Nasa reported that all the global warming was mysteriosly disappeared……Al gor said that by next year (said this on 2001) florida would be convered by water…..Florida is still there and his wife even bough a house next to a beach lol
Aug 9, 2011
I love when liberals like Gore are losing the debate after three decades of beating the drum! Most people don't buy his propaganda of man-made global warming any more… and that's really why he's come unglued!
Aug 9, 2011
Nothing wrong with keeping the planet "clean," but keep things in perspective, too. A single volcano eruption dwarfs man's impact for quite some time. Also, if you want to live like a third world, powerless country, then that's fine, but I don't think it's very humane to humans.
Aug 9, 2011
Al Gore has what credentials to call what other people say is bullshit? He has no more than anyone else. The difference is what his money and waning influence can buy. In order to have the most balanced information possible, how much time has Gore spent with any mainstream researchers who don't agree with his "opinion" on global warming?
Aug 9, 2011
Amazingly your comment gets 3 thumbs up, while numb nuts above (who didn't pass science class in high school) get 14. Maybe Peyton, humans deserve what they get?
Aug 9, 2011
Vince, you don't strike me as a science sort of fellow. More like an ignorant redneck moron.

You mentions 'gods hobby' and talk about proof. Who's the crazy one?

Aug 9, 2011
Who are these wacko organizations that keep inviting this nitwit to speak? The guy has no credability yet they keep giving him a platform to speak – and of course the media keeps reporting his rants. Time to hang it up Al!
Aug 9, 2011
Algore doesn't give a flip about saving the Earth, clean air or water, all he really cares about is lining his pockets with the cash from selling Carbon Offsets. This money will fit in nicely with the fortune his family made from pushing tobacco on America for so many years. If he really cared as much about the climate as he says he does, he would not live like a fat cat in his monster house with the gigantic carbon footprint or fly his private jet all over creation belching out an un-godly amount of CO2 directly into the atmosphere to preach against people who do the same damn thing. Algore is just a big fat douche bag, full of vinegar and hot air. He is hypocritical to the Nth degree and it could be argued that he is just plain crazy. Thank God the idiot has no power over our Nation!
Aug 9, 2011
Give em hell Al–it was inconvenient then and even more so now. Thanks for trying to wake up fools–who typically will shoot the messenger, as is being done here, and have nothing but smoke and mirrors with which to obscure the message–the rest of the lame dissent. Not an expert among the group but all with strong opinions. Hey ain't the Internet great? Next thing some one will pipe in reminding us how you claimed to have invented it.
Aug 9, 2011
Why would anyone want to degrade the memory of great men like the Stooges by comparing them with these fools!
Aug 9, 2011
Right on AL get knee deep off in their asse's, although, it's a little too late, only through Divine Intervention, will only man be save, and I believe God would rather start all over again then to, save THIS kind of human race Maybe the children for GOD SAKE'S.
Aug 9, 2011
I believe that this is Al Gore's way of paying us back for not electing him President. "You will all pay dearly", is what I imagine him saying under his carbon dioxide breath! How do you get away with taxing the air we breath. What a scam!

Me thinks he doest protest too much…………

I SURE DO MISS GEORGE BUSH!
Aug 9, 2011
The real reason he is so dogmatic about this is remember Carbon Credits? Go read up about it. Algore is behind most of the companies set up to receive money from carbon credits. he keeps this scare going and he is rewarded handsomely. Google Al Gore and Carbon credits and read for yourself.
Aug 9, 2011
Too bad nobody saved us from 8 years of George Bushe and a ruined economy.
Aug 9, 2011
Man must have an awfully big ego to think he can control something as big and powerful as this great planet of ours. We are not powerful enough to ruin or save it. Tell me how we cause earth quakes and then tell me how we can prevent one.

Al Gore is a tool if he thinks any rational person could be swayed into his way of thinking using such filthy language. And the fact that his rants have made him a multi-millionaire with a ten million dollar home on the West Coast says a lot about what his loyalties really say about this fat big-mouthed slob. Whenr he was caught on camera taking campaign donations from a buddhist monk, also said a lot about his character, or lack thereof.
Aug 9, 2011
We're not talking Earthquakes my-man. We're talking about Man-Made pollution.
Aug 9, 2011
It's about time he got pissed. It's about time everybody that KNOWS anthropomorphic global climate is a real threat to existence got pissed. Deniers are a sub species…not even intellectual enough to be considered human. But then, I'm militant so I am fine with the idea of eliminating all threats to normal human existence. And I mean exactly that…eliminate.
Aug 9, 2011
Keep living in denial and saying it's "Gods Will"
Aug 9, 2011
The only idiot on here is you george_s_patton666. Just one more anti-christian in the bunch. Way to go doofus. Its so much easier to believe that the world is a sentient being on its own than to believe in a loving Creator who made it all. I just love you people, and I pray for your redemption.
Why is it so hard to believe that man can't really destroy what God created? Volcanoes have been around since the being of the world, that being the first day of creation by God. So in Gore's mind, since "global warming" is a real thing, I guess based on his rant Almighty God is not? The only inconvenient thing Gore has shown us is…. he's one of us. Very sad.
Aug 9, 2011
I can see you are well informed Glenda….LOL
Aug 9, 2011
You think he got rich off your dime? And if someone is going to get rich, what's wrong with it being someone trying to protect humanity rather than someone who makes money adding to the problem? But ignorant deniers will be the primary target when the question is no longer deniable…like this summer. Or next summer…or this winter. But hey…those are undeniable facts that you ignoramuses can ignore as long as you keep funneling money into the pockets of the oil industry ceo's.
Aug 9, 2011
I can't believe the stuff people make up just to support ignorance. For those who cite Nasa, are you crazy? I recommend you look up NASA's Global Climate Change website. Or are all those NASA's scientists conspiring against you? These are far more eminent scientists than the ones who deny climate change is caused by humans. And there is vast agreement among international scientist. NASA: "Humans have increased atmosspheric CO2 concentration by a third since the Industrial Revolution began". No, Native-Americans didn't increase global temperatures that much by burning forests. This is the highest CO2 emission in thousands of years. As for God being in control of climate, if we are "God's creations" wouldn't it make sense that we have free will to ruin whatever we want? We certainly could wipe out humankind with nuclear weapons, couldn't we?"
Aug 9, 2011
Global warming is just a word made up by liberals for one way to get at those who are frightened and confused by all the stuff happening in the last 10 or so years. Since God made it all, how can you not understand that God knew what he was doing when he made the seasons, hence there will also be "seasons" of change in the universe. Meaning the solar sun cycles of heating up and cooling… its nothing new except to those morons who cling to a idol of science alone. For those who believe in global warming, maybe you should open up and stop insisting that you are right all the time. Might even be good for you.
Aug 9, 2011
What a bunch of shallow, ignorant, head-in-the-sand fools inundate this comments-section, just as they do the mob of self-proclaimed "righteous-of-God" who think that everything IS the way they WISH it was just because they SAY it is. If the rest of us are angry (as Mr. Gore well-expressed it), it is because we, and especially our children, are going to pay for your complete and absolute idiocy right along with you, and pay IN SPADES.
It is almost beyond correcting, though…the most we could do would be to take the long-recommended steps that by now might mitigate the damage and it's repercussions, environmental and social–but that would take courage and sacrifice that is in about as much supply among you poor, self-deluded sheep as intelligence, wisdom and vision.
You'll be the loudest, panicked complainers when the sh*t hits the fan, of course–and the ones in the mindless crowds attacking those of your neighbors who have long since banded together, stocked up on essentials and prepared a "defensible position" in hopes of preserving some fragment of what will by then be "the world that once was".
Aug 9, 2011
Here's the bottom line fools. There are too many people, creating too much garbage, killing too much or our natural wildlife and fauna. Checked the price of "wild caught" fish these days fools. Luckily I am in the last quarter of my life and won't have to watch our planet be degraded to the point that my great nieces and nephews will struggle for a drink of fresh water.
Whether it is climate change, global warming or whatever, the fact is simple – too many people are like a cancer devouring the host. The planet will survive, people may not. We were given a gift of an extraordinary planet and a brain with which to think – we don't use the latter, we won't be here to enjoy the former.
Up to you. And no this is not a liberal or a conservative debate.
Choke on it.
Aug 9, 2011
There are some things under our control and some things not. Obviously. Gee, we're not powerful? So I guess if started a nuclear waar, it wouldn't be our fault, right? Would it be God's? There's a lack of logic in this kind of thinking.
Aug 9, 2011
You are a blind person 666. Man can't harm this planet. We can make a mess but we can't do permanent harm to the planet. It was designed to be our home… (facepalm)
Aug 9, 2011
Bob, you are an idiot. Ignorance is ok, stupidity combined with ignorance is what your parents produced in the back seat of that Ford.
Aug 9, 2011
God has nothing to do with this, and even if it is God, he's giving us a chance to make a difference and do something for the better of this Earth. Let's not let this pass us buy and feel the wrath….
Aug 9, 2011
Science, real science says Global warming is caused by us. Science also tells us we have a disaster heading our way (you listening Texas?, hot enough yet?) We could act, or we could make it politics and say "Oh shucks we can't do nothun about it" and just let the planet die because Republicans are too lazy and too greedy and too shortsighted to allow us to act.
Aug 9, 2011
AGREED!!
Aug 9, 2011
No doubt, god's will. How pathetic, I would rather listen to any scientist than some bible thumper!! Keep striving for that american dream the republicans keep feeding you. Gotta love religious idiots!! By the way the earth is way older than 2,000 years old……idiot!!
Aug 9, 2011
There's no real reply to idiocy like this (in response to Chris Edwards). Please educate yourself. Look up real NASA data.
Aug 9, 2011
AL Gore is a looney toon! what a jerk!
Aug 9, 2011
Oh Al, you are so irrelevant. Relax, get a massage. Oops that's how you lost Tipper the best thing that ever happened to you.
Aug 9, 2011
glenda just repeats what the bs media tells her
Aug 9, 2011
it has nothing to do with being too warm or too cold. Look at how weather is changing. record hot days, record numbers of tornadoes, the melting of glaciers which will lead to rising water levels. We'll see when places like SF and NYC's water levels rise and affect drinking water. It's not just about hot and cold, try to learn about what you're talking about and not just go against something because you dont agree with someones politics. This is not a political issue. But, nothing will probably come of either side of peoples views…
Aug 9, 2011
yes it is older than 2000 years read your bible!
Aug 9, 2011
Yeah how idiotic! It is way more intelligent to believe that 2 atoms magically appeared out of no where and then exploded to form the amazing universe that we live in! Also I am confused by the term "Bible Thumper" but I guess that is irrelevent to the article. Oh wait, so was your attack on his faith.
Aug 9, 2011
Shame on you! Your language is totally unacceptable, regardless of your views on a particular subject.
Aug 9, 2011
Al Gore crazy as a loon? Based on what evidence? Your belief is hardly truth. If you're questioning his sanity based on his position when it comes to climate change–well i'll take fact over belief any day.
Aug 9, 2011
I believe in global warming….
I believe in global cooling too.
I believe the earth is in flux, having gone through various periods of warming and cooling for millions of years.
I also believe that the little nuclear furnace we call the sun is the driving force behind Earth’s climate change.
I also believe in altithermal optimums and hypsithermal intervals.
I believe in periods of glaciation and interglacial periods.
I believe in the snowball earth hypothesis.
Et cetera et cetera et cetera….
But manmade global warming destroying the planet? No, I’m not so vain as to believe we have that kind of power, or more precise, MORE power than the sun has to effect climate change. That’s nonsense.
Aug 9, 2011
Gore's butt sucks butter milk, what a fool, he is part of the problem.
Aug 9, 2011
Start with what matters, water, non-gmo food,clean air and all the crazy drugs they shove into our animals and feed to the public, not climate change. Al Gore is the biggest liar ive ever had to listen to

Um, it's NEVER been about "Global Cooling", at least not since about, oh, let's see, about 20,000 years ago (not counting the "Little Ice Age" during the Dark Ages)…but y'all just keep making up your own facts to go with your blind and angry dismissal of anything and everything you don't agree with and/or don't want to hear. Don't bother cracking a book or using the brain God gave you…that's just so boring, and YOU already know everything that's worth knowing. Everything's fine, nothing will change, and those who say otherwise are just Bad People who are trying to take your money and all your nice things away.
Aug 9, 2011
how much oil do you use steven sanders? everything you own is made from oil. try to make all these plastic bottles out of corn!
Aug 9, 2011
D. J. it's not Al's language that you should be concerned about. And stop using God as a shield for your unwillingness to live in reality, to stand in ignorance.
Aug 9, 2011
Al Gore is a piece of garbage.
Aug 9, 2011
William Duette is an idiot. Gore would have been ten times the president that little Bush was. Bush was an embarrassment to all Americans. Gore is a hero and a fighter.
Aug 9, 2011
Al Gore has more houses than my whole neighborhood, and with his heating and A/C produces more pollution that goes into our air.
Aug 9, 2011
Glenda -.- you really don't know what you are talking about so please stop. if you really look at CO2 levels and compare them to current temperature of that time. you would notice that more CO2 there is the cooler the earth got and Listen to Michael Crichton its "just a bunch of non-sense" and have you even consider that there is space dust going around the sun? NO i believe you in ignorance and get sucked into what Gore said when he over exaggerated and used inaccurate information in his "documentary"
Aug 9, 2011
That's all a part of "the change." The sooner we can eco-farm on a large (and profitable) scale the better!!!
Aug 9, 2011
I will agree with you Dan he truly need to stop screaming "manbearpig" and grow up
Aug 9, 2011
Chris, reading your post reminded me that I grew up in a dairy/ cattle ranch environment, and I don't recall hearing or smelling any cow farts…..
Aug 9, 2011
Idiot GORE is Lost from reality. The idiots that elected OBAMA should try to elect GORE in 2012. Any sane person should reliaze is that a PROFESSIONAL Politician is LYING ANY TIME THEY SPEAK!
Aug 9, 2011
Heck ya! *high five*
Aug 9, 2011
OK, it might be 5,700 years old according to the (non-definitive) King James bible. Who care? Same thing! Anyone who thinks that those numbers compare in any way to geologic time lines has no concept of science or natural history. We are talking BILLIONS of years. You have to pull your head our of your … bible… and understand that science is real! If it wasn't, you would not have a computer, or GPS or Tang. And you certainly would not have drugs and vaccines if evolution were not a fact. Look it up, to quote Rusanna.
Aug 9, 2011
Steven Sanders, are you suggesting that Obama can tax him more just like he will raise the taxes on the rich????
Aug 9, 2011
Excuse me, that was a chevy….
Aug 9, 2011
Michael Crichton is a great scientist, right? I thought so. Really, I think you need to look at the NASA data. There are varying degrees of cooling and warming but overall trend is heating upwards. If you look at the prolonged droughts, heat waves, extreme weather events, this is what has resulted in the highest concentration of carbon dioxide in known history.
Aug 9, 2011
In 650,000 years CO2 has never been as high as 380 parts per million, which it is now. The most recent Ice Age was 10,000 years ago. So how do you figure?
Aug 9, 2011
Mr Perez-let's accept that what you say is true–does that mean then that climate change is not happening? I'm not following your logic.
Aug 9, 2011
If people really want to stem global warming, have this idiot, Al Gore shut his mouth. That will prevent more hot air from being released into the ozone.
Aug 9, 2011
There's a difference between volcanoes and the affects of humankind on the earth. If we set off a Nuclear War, is it man or God who destroyed the Earth. If it's God, is he a loving God. I'm just pointing out some illogic. Really, there is no discrepancy between believing in God and believing we can ruin the Earth. Believe it or not, there is a growing Evangelical movement that recognized this and is very concerned about this crisis. I mean, dragging religion into everytime is just a cop-out.
Aug 9, 2011
You mean, like Bush?
Aug 9, 2011
Yeah, and you're a rocket scientist.
Aug 9, 2011
Yeah, and his economy, huh?
Aug 9, 2011
By the way, Christian, I don't have to stop. Thank God so far there is Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Religion.
Aug 9, 2011
You know, the trouble with these people is they don't practice what they preach. He may have a valid point, but he goes flying around the country in a private jet, uses large limos. Lives in mansions and so on and so on. Just another case of you all need to cut emissions and polution, but I will maintain my way of life. Do as I say, not as I do. Looks as though they use this crap to pad THEIR wallet and dictate live to all of us.
Aug 9, 2011
You don't like my comment, that's your right. But don't try to say bringing God into the equation is a cop-out. You don't believe, that's your choice. My choice and my belief is Al Gore doesn't tell the truth.
Aug 9, 2011
Whatever! Grow up!
Aug 9, 2011
The type of language shows his in ability to think!
Aug 9, 2011
What gets me is the climate change crowd bashes others for having faith in god. They say it is a fairy tale, made up, wahtever. Lets see here, you cannot really prove man made global warming is really occuring, science can go both ways on the matter, so isn't global warming alot like a religion? Just saying, there is no doubt that the globe is warming, I just don't think it is from humans, cow farts were worse than cars, look it up.
Aug 9, 2011
This Global Warming crap is such BS. The Climate has always been changing. The earth doesn't go in a perfect orbit every time, so the weather isn't always going to be consistent. Go look at weather data from when they were first recorded, it's never consistent.
Aug 9, 2011
The worst that can happen is we all lose our rights to live in freedom and democracy and have to obey the edicts of people like Al Gore who will dictate what food we can eat, what kind of cars we can drive, and what size houses we can live in. All the while Al will be living in his 25,000 SF mansion, flying private jets and eating himself to morbid obesity. Can you find the hypocrite in this picture?
Aug 9, 2011
His plane causes more CO-2 in one year than my family and all there trucks combined.
Aug 9, 2011
Al Gore what a nit wit hay you sent all the industrial jobs to CHINA BLOWING SMOKE UN CHECKED O YOU THINK IT STAYS IN CHINA. YOU DON, T DESERVE A PENSION YOU SHOULD BE SENT TO CHINA.
Aug 9, 2011
Wow Jeff, thats a bit of a stretch
Aug 9, 2011
I'll try to say whatever I want. I didn't dispute your right to say what you said. I'm just saying, why not bring some facts into this debate. You guys just all dump on Al Gore without saying anything real.
Aug 9, 2011
Say, how about the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, one of the main backers of the Tea Party. Think there your cute little neighborhood Chamber of Commerce. They noiw represent foreign and multinational companies and are actively advocating outsourcing. How American is that?
Aug 9, 2011
Talk about brainwash!
Aug 9, 2011
He's exaggerating. They haven't showed a huge discrepancy. In fact, the shit has already started hitting the fan, faster than they thought.
Aug 9, 2011
Yeah, I would just like to offer my observations with regard to this conservation. It just seems that everybody on here, pro and anti-Al Gore alike are getting increasingly drunk on power and being a Grade-A (expletive) while they're at it.
Aug 9, 2011
AL'S THE BULL SHITTER! THE FAT ASS SHOULD STAY HOME & OUT OF TROUBLE….
WHAT A NUMB NUT SOCIALIST PUKE! GLAD NO ONE TAKES THE LIBERAL SCUM SERIOUSLY AT ALL….
Aug 9, 2011
"Gore also got hella pissed about…"
Did Eric Cartman write this article? Jeez… lol
Aug 9, 2011
The population of the world passes enough methane gas every day to fill 9 nuclear submarines. The world should have blown up a long time ago.
Aug 9, 2011
Thank GOD this nut never became President! He's still spouting this global warming BS even though it's been dispelled by every reputable scientist in the biz. What a nutcase! Give it up already, AAAAALLLL! Go sweep a floor or catch a fish. We're on to you.

Aug 10, 2011
you people who think al is an idiot are idiots.the polar caps are melting the ocean is riseing.their has been more natrual disasters in the 2000's then any other time in history and if we don't change we are all screwed.
Aug 10, 2011
Yeah Texas is warm enough and we are warm enough every year so what is new? You and the rest of you liberals feed on fear. Al Gore does not practice what he preaches. His house is the largest use of natural resources in his state. Those jets he flies on don't run on bio fuel either. Blame everything on the Republicans just like the politicians in Washington. The blame game isn't going to fix anything and short sighted people like you aren't helping. You probably still think he invented the internet don't you? Crawl back in your hole and bury your head in the sand and wait for your end to come quietly please.
Aug 10, 2011
What a dumb ass. Al Gore doesn't dictate what you eat you fool. Monsanto does. Ask ANY farmer you ass hat.
Aug 10, 2011
Last time the US government ran a surplus was when Bill Clinton was in office. After him, the Bushes f'd up everything. You are clearly stupid.
Aug 10, 2011
It was a Chevy Pick up. We were all there.
Aug 10, 2011
We should do all we can without turning America into a 3rd world country. Gore doesn't want us to use oil, nat. gas, coal, nuclear energy, etc. In other words he wants us to live like they do in Africa and I'm sorry thats not going to happen. ALl the while Al Gore is taking a Gulfstream jet that uses more fuel in one day than I use in my 2 cars and motorcycle in a year.
Aug 10, 2011
By the way, if anyone happens on this page, somehow a debate I was having on an ultra-conservative Website ended up here. (Part of it anyway. I was trying to point out some facts to this person, after he said carbon emission caused the Ice Age so there really isn't global warming. Reference my comment about the most recent Ice Age. Then he told me to stop talking about it I really didn't know what I was talking about. That's when I said "I don't have to stop." But it's a futile debate, they just cite God as the reason for climate change, Yell about their favorite scapegoat (other than Obama) Al Gore and don't really get into the facts.
Aug 10, 2011
It's the "chits" this is all because of the chits. I was robbed of the Presidency. The sky is falling the sky is falling, just like in the (very bad) movie 2012.
Aug 10, 2011
To all those who don’t believe the earth is heating up see you in hell on earth in about 20 years you bunch of pathetic sheep.
Aug 10, 2011
This "discussion" has degenerated and devolved from the realm of Science a long time ago. This is a new religion, where the true believers know best and rest of the unwashed are "climate change deniers". The infidel deniers are to be banished as evil polluters or as climate heretics. Believe us or else the world is doomed. They keep pumping out the same tripe expecting everyone to fall in line like good little sheeple.
Carbon dioxide has been both higher and lower in the past, than the current levels of carbon dioxide. The world is still here. The main green house gas is water vapor, are we going to ban all oceans and lakes to stop this terrible greenhouse gas?
We have fraudulent science coming from the IPCC. This diatribe coming from the likes of Al "I invented the internet" Gore.
Aug 10, 2011
Yeah he could bore his own mirror as he drones on and on. He's like a non sexier Ralph Nader trying to shame us about human nature.. Sidenote. I stopped putting out recycling when I learned our recycling is burned for electicity and the smog plume extends across the Tampa Bay
Aug 10, 2011
That's the consummate attitude of most young people in liberal colleges and universities today. "I'll say what I want etc.". Good for you dear, if you want facts let's look at ALL the NASA information, not just the parts you want.
Aug 10, 2011
Sherwood- Moron. Oh, let's just be friends and clean the earth. Dumbass, it has nothing to do with a clean earth. He and his moron followers hate capitalism because there's winners and losers…even though the "losers" in a capitalist society have flat screen TVs, cars and microwaves…oh and computers with cheap internet access that allows them to bitch about how unfair it is to be an American. So let's shut it down by telling everyone that capitalism kills the earth.
Moron.
Pull your head out and look around. Nobody of any consequence thinks you are a better person because you say warm fuzzy things on a blog. Get a life, go out and produce something, and get a taste of what it feels like to really make a difference in someone's existence, by creating a few jobs, and maybe even a product that is affordable and improves life for your fellow "citizens of the world".
Moron.
Aug 10, 2011
What happens is we go completely broke. We cannot afford to save the planet from a "possible" disaster. Unless, you want America to be a 3rd world country in the process.

As the idiot leaves this conference in an SUV to catch his private jet to his huge compound in Tennessee……
Aug 10, 2011
Al Gore is like the old Supreme Cour definition of pornography "Without redeaming social value." Get a life Al, and by the way shut off the lights in the Nashville Mansion and save the Eaarth from your phatasm of Global Warming.
Aug 10, 2011
Glenda's a idiot.
Democrats have had control of the House since 2006, we were doing alot better before this inexperience man took over the White House.
As far as Al Gore goes not many people waste a breath on him. Everybody in Washington knows he's a joke!
Not one scientist has proved anything on global warming!
ITS A HOAX.
Aug 10, 2011
Wow! Now I'm off to watch our recording of South Park with ManBearPig for good measure.
Aug 10, 2011
Yeah, have you ever had triple-digit temperatures and a drought this long? if you have, I feel for you.
Aug 10, 2011
And whatever the hell that means. It's one thing being child-like, and that's o.k., but being childish?
Aug 10, 2011
gore needs to just go away…..you lost the 2000 election, move on……seems to me you made a nice living afterwards spreading your false global-warming climate propoganda…..give us a break!(maybe hit the treadmill once in a while too Al, your looking awful bloated!)
Aug 10, 2011
Haven't you ever read any real science? Carbon has not been this high in the last 650,000 years. Maybe when volcanoers were erupting all over the earth there were huge carbon levels. In the last 650,000 years the levels have never been this, 350 parts per million.
Aug 10, 2011
NOTE: I'm aware Al Gore is a hypocrite. I'm not trying to debate what that Private Jet flying ex President is doing, but his message.
What is wrong with creating a cleaner earth? Let's audit the EPA and create an entity that will honestly work with companies to promote less waste and a more environmentally-positive power source? We have the technology, it's wether the private companies want to pay for it. Unfortunately there is no one definitive answer on the future of fuel and food so it seems every week a different nut job has a better idea than the next guy (Thanks YouTube). If Kennedy was alive today maybe he'd say, "We as a people should choose to create a cleaner planet in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard." If you really want to create a bright future for your children's children, invest in clean air, water and figure out how to supply food for the billions of people on this planet using the endless natural resources this world has already given us. Americans have some of the most brilliant minds in this world and our financial resources are (almost) endless. I believe the human race can be a better, more prosperous and free people. It's wether or not we'll kill ourselves while trying to get there.
Aug 10, 2011
get this guy a straight jacket before he hurts someone.he's lost his mind or what's left of it.
Aug 10, 2011
it is a waste of my time I litter every day
Aug 10, 2011
oh my god. clearly some people are retarded. al gore has had a lot of money, for a very long time, long before he started to promote his message of climate change. Why would he start saying we need to cut co2 emissions when he was very likely invested in the oil industry?
Aug 10, 2011
It was a joke… try to have some fun
Aug 10, 2011
this is funny.
Aug 10, 2011
fair enough.
Aug 10, 2011
George Bush had control of this country for 10 years. With tax cuts for the wealthy, 2 wars that weren't paid for, and a drug prescription benefit that wasn't a benefit except to pharmaceutical companies and wasn't paid for, we accumulated a record deficit with more spending than Obama's. And the job-creators that needed the tax cuts, like the oil companies, etc. didn't create jobs, did they? Bush was a totally reckless, inexperienced man. But he was mainly a puppet for Dick Cheney and company. If you think we were doing better, you haven't been paying attention. The recession Bush left us with was deeper than anyone thought. Little by little, Obama's trying to clean up the mess Bush left us with. You can call me an idiot, I don't care, you'll be the idiots when the Tea Party fucks everything up.
Aug 10, 2011
Anything to keep bashing others right Glenda?
Aug 10, 2011
Believe me, he's not losing it, most people know it's real.
Aug 10, 2011
What about my children and my grand children and your children and grand children. Why do people desire to listen to those pseudo scientists and republican/oil-coal wall street nay sayers. Have you been outside this summer?
Aug 10, 2011
Including you?
Aug 10, 2011
Oh yes Glenda, since you are such a proponent of this garbage, you need to cite ALL your internet sites for the "information" you've scavenged off of them…. because no one is believing it.
Aug 10, 2011
Maybe Glenda should take her own advice and grow up hm? She seems to have fallen into a rut of calling people names and calling their own points of view as idiotic etc.
Aug 10, 2011
Every reputable scientist? You mean, Not the reputable international community of scientists who have unearthed the facts? Who else is there? There's a small number of scientists who don't agree with global warming, not every reputable scientist! But I guess Nasa's not reputable. Part of the conspiracy!
Aug 10, 2011
Me thinks ol' Al doest protest too much…. This is pretty funny coming this agenda driven liar, who pulled movie clips and put up false info (like filming in mid summer and calling this climate/global warming) to put into his propaganda movie farce.
Those who are at least informed know what the REAL truth is, Al is a hyocritical liar.
He has absolutely NO proof of the lies he tells, and REAL science can't back it up either.
He pushes his agenda cause his money is in oil. And oil is down to $80 a barrel…he's losing money, so he's back again to push this down everyone's throat, hoping the gullible will buy it.
Too bad Al, everyone with half an ounce of common sense knows you're a fraud and and opportunist.
Those of you dimwits that are arrogant enough to believe we can control climate and weather need your head examined and need to stop listening to this garbage. Try getting a fact based opinion on your own, and use some common sense… you look like tree hugging fools.
Aug 10, 2011
The bashing sure is not one-sided!
Aug 10, 2011
Good point dsapute… but the liberal tree huggers don't want to think about that, it puts a big hole in their silly doomsday theories
Aug 10, 2011
Well, I guess your illogical mind does not even begin to comprehend some itty bitty things like facts from the world's most respected scientists. And when you talk about bashing people, you actually do your share. You tried to tell me to be quiet, you deride anyone who is not of your religion, yes, I suggest you go right to the website of NASA and check it out NASA:Climate change.
Aug 10, 2011
That surplus came from Reagan drapey… Clinton didn't do it, he walked in on the coattails of Reaganomics
Aug 10, 2011
JR. ignorance is one thing, but you lack common sense (which apparently you do) along with being gullible enough to buy into this farce of a play for your money, then you deserve what you get with some bonehead like Gore. He's a fraud, always was, always will be… I've had my own experience with his 'expertice' in TN first hand… he's full of hot air and nothing of substance.
Aug 10, 2011
Well,
I don't have to say much about this. If he would have worked as hard on his marriage and less on this false belief system, there would be many more people better off today. There is such a push to control people today and it comes under the guise of so many things. Enough people don't believe that we can think for ourselves so they must "take care of us". I will not be tricked, bullied, or forced to do what I know is not true. The Lord gave us minds and a desire to be free from false teachings of all kind, including the global agenda for which Al Gore is pushing on so many people. Stand for truth or fall for anything.
Aug 10, 2011
Seriously Glenda, shut your big yap… you clearly show your ignorance and gullibility.
Aug 10, 2011
That's not right. Reagan created a deficit. (And actually raised, for all you people who think he was a saint). Clinton came in, cut the deficit, and actually created the surplus, something Republican like to talk about but they can't do it. Bush came and squandered that surplus and ran the economy straight into the ditch. You notice how quickly he ran from the mess he left Obama?
Aug 10, 2011
As a matter of fact GLENDA yes, this has happened before, before you ever came along. And it will happen again and again, all without your assistance.
Aug 10, 2011
I meant to say, Ronald Reagan actually raised taxes)..
Aug 10, 2011
True Mike, Glenda has some real mental issues going on there.. mostly sounds like liberal brain washing, but then she's looks like a child who buys anything she's told by deceitful liars.
Aug 10, 2011
Nice Solitaire… you're right on with your comments. Thank you for posting and countering the rediculous ramblings of someone like the ill-informed Glenda.
Aug 10, 2011
Glenda just can't seem to keep that big arrogant liberal trap shut, not understanding how everyone is laughing at her rediculous postings.
Aug 10, 2011
Glenda can you just shut the f up? You have nothing noteworthy or factual to say except stupid remarks, you show your ignorance everytime you post.
Aug 10, 2011
There's really nothing to be said to you people. And Solitaire Huntress, if you think you have been above the fray, maybe you should check yourself out. Oh, you didn;t call names? What a hypocrite!
Aug 10, 2011
and Glenda, you're a gullible arrogant liberal snake, you're a disgusting example of what's coming out of our colleges…. you're just another of the brainwashed liberal products of these sick liberal professors. When you get out into the REAL world, you might grow up and get an ounce of sense.
Aug 10, 2011
You don't realize how incredibly hateful you come off. I guess you call yourselves loving Christians. I don't claim to be that. People who live in glass houses should not throw stones. It always gets to this level when people bring in facts and so forth. All you can do is yell at Al Gore, proclaim people are anti-Christian etc.
Aug 10, 2011
Ge3e, beside trying to insult people, you don't have anything real to say.
Aug 10, 2011
Al Gore exhaling comprises 90% of human carbon dioxide production.
Aug 10, 2011
Oh, like you? You haven't said anything intelligent at all. No, I won't shut up. Thank God, there's still freedom of speech. Probably won't be if you guyys get in power.
Aug 10, 2011
Mr. Perez you posted what I was wanting to say. Tyrees, it is a good point Mr.Perez makes, you see…they want all of us to change our lifestyle while they live the good life, after all they ARE far above us….. think about it.
Aug 10, 2011
Whatever. I know there are people who agree with what is real, whatever you think. And the future will tell. It is now.
Aug 10, 2011
I love you, Jerry!
Aug 10, 2011
Few people believe in man caused global warming any more … prompting the accepted terminology to be switched to "climate change". Hell, I remember in the 60's and 70's "global cooling" and the "next ice age" was the big fear.

I wholeheartedly agree Dancerchic70. Its easy to spot a liberal parrot isn't it?
Aug 10, 2011
Don't talk sweetie, you've done nothing in this "debate" on here but call others names and deride their views. You're behaving as if you are Gore's guard dog? So my question to you is.. what's really eating at you? The fact that many of us don't believe the garbage he spouted? Or is it the fact that Yes, we have the same rights you do… Freedom of Speech AND Freedom of Religion?
Aug 10, 2011
"Yet, the very way time is seen is based on the death of this Jesus. Modern time is based on the year Jesus died, A.D. everything before B.C. I was taught this means Before Christ or After Death (of Christ)."
So then Jesus died when he was 0 years old? Wow, you have so much information to teach the world, you should be out there giving lectures!
Or maybe you should realize that you're not an expert and you should listen to the actual experts and understand that there's a reason we don't base our environmental policies on the sophomoric (moronic) research of people looking for things to justify their lazy, ignorant lifestyles. Not that I know you and I'm judging you, I'm just making very safe assumptions
Aug 10, 2011
Thank you Dancerchic70. Its good to know I'm not alone and that there are many others who feel and believe the same way.
Aug 10, 2011
I haven't heard a single fact coming from you.
Aug 10, 2011
@Glenda Kinda sad that you keep coming back to be dished on but have some self-respect and go actually research some of what we said to tell us what were we wrong on instead of assuming you know it all. because that makes an ass out of you and me.
Aug 10, 2011
By the way, you can insult me all you want. I don't care. It makes me laugh, I"m not kidding. And I kind of feel for you, because to be that defensive You must be hurtin' inside. And I'm sorry for that. I know we kind of all got mean-spirited, me included and I know it's because everyone is so passionate about their opinions. I bet if we met, we would all like each other.
Aug 10, 2011
Peyton, I'm all about clean air, water, and food, but I'm not gonna ride a donkey and live in a tent, while people like AL GORE flys in his private jet, rides around in his stretch limo, and lives in a mansion that uses as much electricity as the whole county I live in. His net worth has gained 300% doing this global warming hoax.

I'm for conservation but against enacting policies and laws based on falsehoods and junk science. How far back do you want to turn back civilization. Don't tell me what to think, eat, drink or how to live, thank you. I don't want to drive an electric and or hybrid car. I will not be talking public transport in Los Angeles. I will use whatever lightbulb I want, I LOVE my washer and dryer. I don't need some has-been politician with a "carbon footprint" the size of tennessee telling me I need to conserve. Don't know how old you are @PeytonSherwood but in the 70's it was all about "global cooling" and how we were all going to starve. Oh yeah ignore the fact that Al Gore lied about the feasability of ethenol or his fantasy film was totally debunked. Or ignore the fact that leading "global warming" scientist fudged the "science" I find it interesting that "global warming" has been replaced by "climate change". What the climate changes who knew? In the "Eloquent" words of Al BULLSHIT!! But what do you expect from a group of narcissistic (see environmentalist) people.

I'm for conservation but against enacting policies and laws based on falsehoods and junk science. How far back do you want to turn back civilization. Don't tell me what to think, eat, drink or how to live, thank you. I don't want to drive an electric and or hybrid car. I will not be talking public transport in Los Angeles. I will use whatever lightbulb I want, I LOVE my washer and dryer. I don't need some has-been politician with a "carbon footprint" the size of tennessee telling me I need to conserve.

http://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/matthew-vadum/2008/08/07/al-gore-oilman-who-hates-oil now I'm not posting this to assault al gore, I'm posting it to prove a point. Why would al gore crusade against co2 emissions falsely if he was invested in oil?
Aug 10, 2011
Climate change is a natural phenomenon. Man has never been able to harness the earth's energy to stop rainfall, control the path of a tornado or constrict the parameters of an earthquake, let alone accurately predict one's occurrence. These are facts. Al Gore has absolutely no credible basis for his claims, his 'award-winning' piece of none sense, or his rants. He cannot stand to be out of the public eye and he likes making money.
Please, use your common sense. Our planet has been around a 'little' longer than Al. So, the next time you see him or something in print that he said, call to mind something like the Pleistocene Era when all the ice covering what is now the United States receded, leaving behind the mountain ranges, flatlands, rivers, streams, and other land configurations north and south, east and west. It's natural Al, so zip it! Stop selling your money-making agenda and just fade away.l.
Aug 10, 2011
If you read the Bible it says that in the end times that natural disasters will increase. I do not see why people must put this off on something we are doing? How does the exhaust of my car cause an Earthquake?
Aug 10, 2011
I recall just last year that scientist had said that we were no longer in a global warming but rather a cooling cycle. I think all this proves is that we really do not have enough knowledge about how the earths temperatures are controlled to make this call yet. I have not really seen it get worse in my life time. If you check we have been setting record lows all over the united states in the past year. Not only in the winter but also in the summer. I live in Phoenix and I am constantly seeing on the news that we are 2 o 3 degrees cooler than normal. How do we know what the long range of normal is if we do not have a large history of global temperatures? A hundred years of records is hardly enough to say the world is warming. Besides this haven't the ice caps been melting for years? If you think no, ask yourself how did we come out of the ice age that scientist say we had. I would guess it is because the planet got warmer. Now where were the co2 producing vehicles then? The planet weather patterns go in cycles. This can be proven by the last 100 yrs of records. Who is to say that there are not cycles within cycles. For example the earth rotates 360 degrees every day. It also is in orbit. This can be the same for weather. Most of the time is stays X way but every so often it starts to a new season. Maybe this does not make since to you and that is fine. Weather is not an exact science and no matter how much they want you to believe they have it all figured out they do not. If they did then they would be able to at the very least predict the weather correctly 100% of the time.

Peyton "To those who disagree with Al Gore and that Climate Change is happening, let me ask you this. Why not do everything humanly possible to have a clean Earth? What's the worst that can happen?"
"Climate Change" has been happening for 4 Billion years and the Climate won't stop Changing because of Al Gore!
Carbon Taxes and Cap-And-Trade Scams reach $2 Trillion per year, pulled out of the economy via Taxes, sent directly to Al Gore and the Central Bankers. Gas would be $7 per gallon in the US, 1-2 Billion people would die from starvation, Federal police would be inspecting your home, sending you fines and regulating your energy use… I could go on and on and on…
Aug 10, 2011
Also a president cant spend a dime without congressional approval, look at the congressional make up during the clinton years…Remember Newt Gringrich as Speaker so Repubs had the house…
Aug 10, 2011
No proof. Climate change has been ongoing from day one. We all want a clean earth, but don't care to bankrupt the nation, states, businesses and families doing so.
Aug 10, 2011
My biggest complaint is he's the classic limousine liberal. "Do as I say…Not as I do" He also owns green companies, So I question his motives….
Aug 10, 2011
Another has been, former presidential want to be striving to stay in the limelight. It is one thing to be a proponent of environmental issues, but can Gore be more balanced in his post-political career endeavors? Is he so narrow minded that he cannot focus on other things once in awhile? Sometimes his passion seems to be show for the media, like when he cusses in a speech, next thing you know, he is all over the internet.
Aug 10, 2011
If there are any parallels between the Three Stooges and Carter, Gore and Obama, it is the notion of Moronica. The Stooges thrived with it and COG trio tried to turn America into it. Lets NEVER forget that Janet Napolitano and Eric Holderare running the justice and security systems like charter members of the Keystone Cops. At least silent movie heroes were always coming to the rescue.

hahahahahahaha thx u jus prove how ignorant evil n completely lacking of a spine or consciousness or morality the republican party represents… REAGAN..REAGAN..REAGAN REAGAN..

Al Gore is a washed-up asswipe! He stutters and repeats his own vitriol, because he doesn't spread the truth! Never has, Never will! He seems to forget that "the rest of us", have science now! And don't need to rely on his BULLSHIT rhetoric anymore. Nasa has spent billions on several craft that are de-crying "global warming" as I type. Apparently Al doesn't have the internet he invented, or watch the news. Instead he just tries to stay in the news with his BULLSHIT stuttering and repetitive non-facts! The educated men and women of this country can see his fat "private jet" "needing" ass coming! Now, if we could just see it going! FOREVER!
Aug 10, 2011
I used to back Al Gore totally, but this is what happened…..
gung ho about the EPA—–but then allowed big companies to buy "credits" so they could continue to pollute.
talked us into NAFTA—–& like Ross Perot warned, that sucking sound WAS our jobs leaving the country.
now, global warming—–yes, it's a fact. Not sure I want him leading the "cause," tho, 'til I know his hidden agenda.
Aug 10, 2011
I really do not understand how people can try to make Al Gore into this cartoon character like villain. He may not be correct but I think he has integrity and believes in what he is saying.
Al Gore Facts: US Army – Served in Vietnam in press corp, Served in Congress from 1976-1993, Vice President of the US from 1993-2001. I think his history shows that he has at least been TRYING to serve his country. You know, Al Gore has been talking about climate change since 1976. I doubt that he has been trying to "rip off" and con the american public for 35 years with this wacky idea about the weather.
Aug 10, 2011
Even if I believed in global warming, the fact that Al Gore is the biggest crusader in the case for it. Makes me dismiss it automatically.
Aug 10, 2011
Fact is every anomaly in the weather is blamed on global warming and that cannot be. The year Florida was hit by all those hurricanes they blamed it on global warming and said they would just increase. Well……..they didn't so then they come out and say the lack of hurricanes was due to global warming. Every heat wave "Oh no climate change we're all going to die!" Every cold snap "Oh no climate change we're all going to die!" Rediculous!
Aug 10, 2011
what is real it is whatever you think is real n the now is a gift thats why we callit a present.if you don't cultivate today don't expect harvest tomorow. people like you is what they want thats why they are in power.
Aug 10, 2011
It's funny. We were having a debate about climate change. All they wanted to do was shut me up. There were no facts coming into it. Just insults.
Aug 10, 2011
You're from Carbondale? Wow! The exhaust of all our cars cause pollution in the air so to say that we don't affect anything is simply not true. We affect a great deal, except earthquakes and volcanoes and such things.
Aug 10, 2011
No, glacial c droughtsaps have bot been melting at the rate they are now. And regardless of very strong winters, the last 10 years have been the hottest in the last hundred years. There have not been record lows this summer as you can see from Texas and Oklahoma having triple digit temperatures for more than a month. They have broken records recently. This is considered the hottest summer yet, actually a health emergency. If you guys are at 116 degrees and you are 2 or 3 degrees cooler I can't imagine what it's like normally. Global climate change is mkore accurate than global warming. There are more storms, flooding, droughts and extreme weather events happening.
Aug 10, 2011
I was typing so fast I meant to say glacial ice caps have not been melting at this rate.
Aug 10, 2011
If you don't believe that the earth is heating up, better look at the record-breaking temperatures recently. But you're wrong about few people believing that man caused global warming. Most scientists do.
Aug 10, 2011
Solitaire, I do invite you to look at it. Look at it all. You'll see what the consensus is. You guys haven't posted a single fact. I'm waiting for it.

There is nothing wrong w/ trying to keep the earth clean Peyton & I support that, but I disagree w/ Al Gore. If he was that concerned about the environment (instead of his wallet), he'd sell that monster of a house that he owns, stop flying around in jets and change his own lifestyle & start living out what he's trying to preach to everyone else except himself. There is no proof on any "climate change" whatsoever. If you go back and read the newspapers & magazines from the late 70s you will see that all of these so called experts were claiming that we were headed into an ice age. Then they flip flop 5 years later and say we are now having global warming. All of the info that he's quoting has been hand picked to fit his agenda. Talk to any weatherman and ask them their thoughts on global warming, they will tell you that they don't see any evidence of it at all. Is Al Gore a weatherman or ever gone to school to be a meteorologist? What makes him an expert on the weather? Did he ever tell you that he refused to a debate with the guy who started the weather channel? This is how he makes his living now. Wake up people! If anybody believes in so called "global warming or climate change", I've got some ocean front property in Kansas to sell them…
Aug 10, 2011
I think I've stated that Gore is a giant hypocrite. No reason we can't move towards a cleaner future. Thats just the point I'm trying to make. Those who can't, teach.
Aug 10, 2011
I'm all for back to nature, bring on the planet cleansing Just please, no more Gore, no more talk of saving the planet, the planet needs saving from Gore! Al put a sock in it, no one, and I mean NO one wants to hear your babble anymore. You were proved false, deal with it.
Aug 10, 2011
I guess it was hard for you to come up with an intelligent reply so all you could do is try to discredit me by picking at where i'm "from" Just to let you know that is not where I am from that is where I went to school. It just happens to be that the #1 school in the country for automotive technology is there so that is where I went. I understand a lot about emissions and what the government mandates to supposedly help out with our pollution problems. We use ethanol in our gas which really doesn't make any since since it gives us a 10% drop in our fuel economy. They want to say that it burns cleaner which is fine except that it does not burn more than 10% cleaner so we actually end up putting more pollutants out into the atmosphere. Just because some hi paid official says it is so means nothing except that he got paid a lot to say it. If you believe all you are told by anyone in our government then you will be wrong a lot.

I can't believe you ever went to school at all, your grammar is shit. And you talk shit! Buddha this………

In the 80's we proved global warming was a joke. Two decades later we are still dealing with this nut Al "I invented the internet" Gore and his cry wolf/The sky is falling message. The Earth is a living planet that is in change constantly. The truth is, we are in a cool down period, but actually in a slight warming trend in the cool down period. Our records only go back so far, and the earth is doing great these days. The rain forests, what's left is working and the earth is doing what it always does, giving us night and day. We get warm during the day, and cool at night. Please Al find a rock and crawl under it, we're tired of hearing your lies, or as you put it, bull S%$t.

Glenda's a bonehead….so is Jerry. Jerry, get off of phonics, it's not working for you. Glenda, your statement proves you're an idiot. Essentially, you're saying that except for the things we can't control, we effect (not affect) the earth a great deal. Ummm when was the last time you say man create a full blown weather event?……

Glenda, Glenda, Glenda…..show me how far back the measurement of glacial ice caps go back? Honest, everyday recordings of the glacial ice caps, not some computer-simulated speculation. The ice has been melting for MILLIONS of years! Until tree hugging was invented, nobody cared!! They were just glad they didn't have to snuggle up with Aunt Freda in the igloo anymore! Ooooops, I just farted….maybe the temperature in Madagascar just went up!!!

Glenda, please prove to us that "most scientists" believe man is causing global warming!
Aug 10, 2011
HOLLLYYYY CRAPPP! Glenda, get your head out of the granola jar and pay attention! S&P LOWERED the US credit rating not because of the debt ceiling, but because there weren't enough cuts to the budget!!! You need to really start paying attention to things before you speak from now on. The "madness" (as you so well put it) is because of the MASSIVE spending that was created, first during the Bush term, and then DOUBLED, yes, DOUBLED in the two and a half years Obama and the Democrats have been in power. The debt ceiling is an issue regard money that has already been spent, you know, like your piece of garbage college loan! Do you realize any of that? The Tea party is simply not taking a political side and saying enough is enough! Read this:

Aug 10, 2011
as far as global warming goes, perhaps the earth has been warming up since the ice age. I mean nobody complained when the glacers melted away from the Yosemity Valley. perhaps this is still the trend. Just another angle!
Aug 10, 2011
First, Glenda, your facts are a extremely assumptive. You're assuming that because of an increase in CO2, there is an automatic increase in temperature. Secondly, how in the wide world do you or any scientist know that the CO2 levels are now, let me see, "In 650,000 years CO2 has never been as high…" so now you're saying that not only the technology, but the records exist for 650,000 years of CO2 levels? Now THAT is about the dumbest thing I've ever heard. All of your so called facts are backed by speculation, not true science!
Aug 10, 2011
I've discovered there is global warming..between the right and left temple of Al Gore!
Aug 10, 2011
I bet Glenda thinks Smurfs are real too. Glenda, you keep spouting "facts" and saying "world's most respected scientists" Who, Glenda. Where are your undenying facts? Show me 650,000 years of records thaprove your analysis. Show me your proof, the task of proof is on you to give us the evidence! I don't care about religion, show me your science! Show me the carbon levels 650,000 years ago and I don't want a computer simulation! When you speak of volcanoes you are automatically disproving your "science" in that fact that you are admitting there could have possibly been higher levels of carbon in the air! Also, your assumption that carbon in the air automatically increases the overall temperature of the earth but you can't prove that either!
Aug 10, 2011
Listen to yourself…wild caught fish is expensive not because of a lack of fish, but because you have to pay someone to go out and catch it. It's MUCH less expensive to grow them in a tank, drain the water, and run them through the processor. Also, if too many people are a cancer to the host, wouldn't your theory suggest that the cancer kills the host? But then right after that you say the planet will survive, people may not?!?!? It's like your arguing against yourself, I don't even know why I'm writing this, you obviously can't read it since your head is up your rear end!
Aug 10, 2011
Well if we dont start cleaning things up soon from the pesticides alone our cancer rate will double each year.
In 2011, the EPA found that the use of neonicotinoid pesticides is both widespread and catastrophic.
Neonicotinoids are on average 7,000 times more toxic than DDT, which was banned in 1972.
Aug 10, 2011
Well, then there's Glenda….she's a whole different type of "intellectual". If man starts a nuclear war and kills themselves off, do you think the earth will survive? What Evangelical movement and what are they recognizing?!?! Where's the name? What is their belief? Have you looked into it or did someone just tell you or did you read it in the Onion newspaper? WHERE ARE YOUR FACTS?!?!? Maybe if you looked into them yourself instead of regurgitating what you think you've heard you may change your mind. Myself, I have looked into it and I say you're full of bologna.
Aug 10, 2011
Glenda must live in Texas…Dayle must have never heard about the Dust Bowl from 1930-1936. Don't send your kids to Butt… ooopps I mean Butte College or S.F. City College! They don't teach history or science there! And yes Glenda, there have been triple-digits and droughts MUCH longer than the 3 months Texas has seen….

I'm not sure if you're for or against this argument that Al has. From what I can discifer, you're saying that Al has money invested in oil and therefore is intentionally hurting his stock portfolio by preaching global warming. Am I right? Because if that's what you're saying, you have no clue how much money this monkey makes going around preaching global warming. And by the way….stock prices are still rising in oil so he must be a good money manager. Actually, I'm gonna call my broker right now!

The argument is not about a clean environment. The argument is that man can do anything that will change of the GLOBAL environment. Globally there is nothing man can do to start, stop, or alter the earth we live in. Yes, we all want a clean environment (except China, Korea, Japan, parts of Russia) but that's not what Al is screaming about. If you research the worst global disasters that man has created (i.e. oil spills, nuclear fallout, etc.) the earth has healed itself faster and more efficient than any man, scientist, or computer ever predicted! I'm more pissed about the idiot who dumps his ashtry in the middle of the street at a stop light than how much mpg's my car gets!

Aug 10, 2011
The fact is Al Gore has made millions off of this bogus theory by suckering people into believing it. So to me his meltdown was especially satifying!
Aug 10, 2011
You obviously have no education on economics either, Glenda. Every time I read one of your posts I hear this Valley Girl voice that has no true knowledge or understanding of fact vs. theory. The fact is that interest rates will more than likely go up anyway because we already have too much debt (that's money already spent) and the budget is out of control for the money we earn (that's credits). The Taxed Enough Already Party is saying that we need to get the budget (what the government spends) under control so that we will not default on the money we already owe (like your credit card bill and associates degree from S.F. City College). If the government continues to spend money like it has, other nations will not invest in America due to fear that we won't pay them back no matter what the debt ceiling is! So what will the other countries do when they lend us money, Glenda? They'll raise interest rates on the money they lend to us so that they get their money faster. And since the government is paying higher rates, it, in turn, gets passed down to us. THAT is why your interest rates will go up. Not because the T.E.A. Party has been trying to curtail the spending.
Aug 10, 2011
Glenda!!! Listen to yourself. Of course foreign and multinational companies want to promote their industries!!! In turn, the U.S. CofC will go to their countries and promote the US. Wow, your ignorance neer ceases to amaze….
Aug 10, 2011
Once again, Glenda, you contradict your very argument. Yes, man can wipe himself/herself off the face of the earth with a nuclear war. Yes, the earth will still be here like it always has. Ergo…man cannot change the earth!!
Aug 10, 2011
Wake up, the gig is up. Falsifying data to support global warming told the world what a farce it is. Just please stop all the BS, cause that is exactly what it is.
Aug 10, 2011
Your "facts" are based off of too many assumptions which turns them back to theory. First you cite that the CO2 concentrations are the highest since 650,000 years ago. Human records don't go back that far and therefore it's a false statement. Secondly, you automatically assume that higher levels of CO2 increases temperature which is also unproven. In a scientific environment (think test tube) there is no way to increase nor decrease temperature with increased or decreased CO2. Also, there is no way, unless you take a survey of them all, that you can say the majority of scientists agree on the global warming issue being a direct result of human action. I'll say it differently, the temperature of the earth is not changing because of the actions of man. Temperature fluctuation is a natural occurance. PLUS!!!! You even said in an earlier post that it's more of a climate change than temperature change so what is it Glenda? You can't have an increase AND a decrease in temperature because of CO2.
Aug 10, 2011
You ridiculous little girl. I haven't demanded a thing. You're quite free to say what you want as are all the others on here. You're just irritated that others won't come over to your way of thinking. For the record, a consensus doesn't meant its correct. A consensus simply means that several people agree on a possible outcome. Nothing is set in stone Glenda.
Aug 10, 2011
Actually Glenda, keep talking because every time you do, you disprove what you said before. When you speak of volcanoes errupting all over the earth you're disproving your own fact that carbon levels are the highest they've been in 650,000 years. And where did 650,000 years come from?
Aug 10, 2011
Glenda hasn't stated one fact, she's simply pointed to NASA's website. Like I've already said before, even the top minds on the planet are only guessing. They could be right but they could also be wrong. While I don't believe in global warming and Glenda does, that's her right. She does not have to right though to brow beat others on this forum because we don't agree.
Aug 10, 2011
All of the "facts" that Gore trumpets are mere theory with regard to temperature change. The problem that Gore is having is that there is no way to scientifically prove that man has a direct affect on the temperature of the earth. That's like trying to scientifically prove or disprove the existance of God. TRUE science can neither support nor deny climate change being a direct result of human action or lack thereof. All TRUE science can do is continue to collect data and perform tests until undeniable evidence is attained. As of now, the undenialble evidence shows that the temperature of the earth is in continual fluctuation. Everything after that is theory until proven factual with hard evidence.

What I'm trying to say is that the U.S. Chamber of Commerce is actively promoting outsourcing American jobs, sending them overseas. It is not a question of promoting the U.S. This is the Chamber actively advocating outsourcing of American jobs. This is so that American companies won't have to pay our taxes. It's not a question of foreign companies promoting themselves. The Chamber is now representing foreign companies.

No-one has actually directed me to a website, a scientist, anything resembling factual information. Just hearsay and generalizing. I would like someone to offer me something more substantive, instead of just insulting because that's all you can do. I have cited facts from NASA's website. Where are yours?
Aug 10, 2011
I guess that's why they call them record-breaking, right? The Dust Bowl not only had to do with drought but stripping the land.
Aug 10, 2011
Hey George, you speak of the scientific method as if you know what it is. I'll get it for you….:

Here George, read this one too. This is why the stupid movie was called Inconvenient Truths, not Facts. Except that his "truths" have been debunked already.:

I can't figure out what you're trying to say. Cultivate what? And you say people like me are in power? I only wish> Right now the Tea Party's in power and they're set to destroy the country economically. They don't care about you or me just to amke their ideological standpoint.
Aug 10, 2011
I don't have to live in Texas to see what's on the news. Unless they're making up the drought too.

The Chamber has always represented foreign companies as well as US companies. Their main goal is global free trade.
Aug 10, 2011
Bill Clinton signed NAFTA into law for that very reason which the Chamber approved of. All they are is a lobbying group, they're not accociated with the governement whatsoever. Kinda like the tobacco lobbying group or the NRA.
Aug 10, 2011
What records are they breaking? You're trying to use a micro climate to push a global agenda and that doesn't work. Is there a global drought?…. last I checked no. And yes, the dust bowl had to do with the stripping of the land but if it wasn't for the two year long drought that wouldn't have happened.
Aug 10, 2011
Where's your website? I looked on NASA's website and the points they use are merely theoretic when trying to explain the global warming. There is still not scientific evidence that shows the warming is a direct effect from man's actions.
Aug 10, 2011
I challange you to do a full study about the actual sciences used to promote man's involvement with global warming. Read both sides, not just the NASA website.
Aug 10, 2011
There are more wensites than just NASA, as well. And they are not guessing at all. there are real facts and figures to back it up. Whose brow-beating? I've been called all kinds of names, been brow-beaten myself. Actually, all those insults just make me laugh. You say I don't have the right? But you have the right to put me down because you don't agree with me? I have been trying to direct people to the facts. In 2007, the mean global temperature ina 5-year average was 14.5 degrees, the warmest in hundreds and probably thousands of years. Many experts warn that global warming is arriving at a faster and more dangerous pace than anticipated just a few years earlier. There is plenty of scientific information on the Web. You could look it up but you don't seem to want to. It won't matter what you believe in the years to come. It'll just happen.
Aug 10, 2011
Where are you getting this information? What do you mean by the mean glodal temperature? Here are true numbers, not some false lie:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Global_Temperature_Anomaly_1880-2010_(Fig.A).gif
Since temperatures have been recorded by man(1880) there has only been a 0.6 degree difference. That's not even one degree difference!! The other thing you have to ask is what were the actual tempereatures before that? Technically we're still coming out of an ice age are we not? I say that because until the ice returns, we're still coming out of it!
Aug 10, 2011
That graph is from your NASA buddies too!
Aug 10, 2011
I'm not sure what NASA site your talking about. Here is the one I'm talking about. Some quotes: From Global climate Change: Satellite study from 2010: In the firest comprehensive global survey of temperature trends, NASA's researchers determined earth's largest lakes have warmed during the past 25 years in response to climate change. The warming trend was global and the greatest increases were in the mid-to-highlatitudes of the Northern Hemispheres." From the actual NASA website: "Most climate scientists agree the main cause of the current global warming trend is human expansion of the "greenhouse effect"". CO2 is the most important long-lived forcing of climate change".
Aug 10, 2011
One thing I wanted to say is that they is it is both – climate and warming trend. How they tell going back so long? They take ice core samples and with toher scientific means they can tell how much CO2 was in the atmosphere, how hot it was, etc. They have found the Ice Ages going back much farthger tha n that in ice core samples.
Aug 10, 2011
Now they are able to tell much more with satellite data.
Aug 10, 2011
And if you say man can not change earth, the atmosphere would be changed on earth for thousands of years after a nuclear war. And there would probably be no humans after a big nuclear war. I'd say that would be a big change for the earth.

He's losing the battle and has not got enough words to express his frustration. If he and Tipper would get back together she might be able to help him keep a reign on his tongue.
Aug 10, 2011
I nwrote a comment; I don't think it took. What I wanted to say in response to your idea that because the earth has warmed little in degree it doesn't mean anything. As little as 1 degree in temperature change can completely change the earth's climate. And how they measure CO2 gas emissions and global temperatures for thousands of years? They take ice core samples, for one things, fronm which they can tell exactly how much oxygen, carbon dioxide etc. there was going way back – they can even tell when, how long etc. Ice Ages occurred. I recommend looking up Dr. James Hansen, eminent astrophysicist and environmental scients. If you look read the table of contents, you'll get a good idea of why top scientists are so worried.
Aug 10, 2011
i can't believe that you think just because he makes money preaching global warming that he's lying about everything. the overwhelming scientific consenseus is the planet is getting warming and humans are responsible for it, not volcanoes. you just don't want global warming to be true because you don't want any taxes to take care of the problem, pure greed driving your doubt. and you think you're better than gore? You're using psuedoscience to justify not having to pay taxes, and you think he's using psuedoscience to justify raising taxes. you're a hypocrit.
Aug 10, 2011
Look him up on Wikipedia.
Aug 10, 2011
The other "side" has been pretty well debunked by now. There is a wide consensus among scientists about climate change and CO2. All I get ffrom the "other side" is people like Michelle Malkin.
Aug 10, 2011
If yhou didn't get my previous comment, I meant Dr. James Hansen, top astro-physicist and environmental scientist. Look him up on Wikipedia and Look through the table of contents. It will explain the scientific methods they use to figure this all out. He studies the atmosphere of Venus, which is largely CO2, and from his extrapolations here, figures we're getting close to the climatory tipping point. The permafrost in Russia and the Arctic is melting, releasing methane gas, an added atmospheric greenhouse gas.
Aug 11, 2011
I'm glad though, that someone is finally engaging me in a serious discussion without calling me names or yelling shut up. Thank you for that respect.
Aug 11, 2011
The fact is 100 yrs of records is not any reason to be alarmed. If we had maybe 500 or more years of records then we would have something to compare to. Just the fact that the last time it was this hot was nearly 100 years ago shows that weather moves in cycles. It was not greenhouse gases then nor an abundant amount of co2 from cars. Weather and temperatures just fluctuate and they always have. Let's look at some of the deserts of the world. When studied they find that at one time they had river flowing through them that are now dry. How did this happen? I bet it had nothing to do with co2 and greenhouse gases. The idea that we some how know what is going on is absurd. I can see what you are saying but when making such big claims you need enough evidence to back it up. We just do not have enough records to show that our pollution it the cause of the temperature rise. I do think it is a cause of lots of things just not the temp. I can see what they are trying to say but in the last 2 decades cars have made great strides in clean emissions. Just recently with the gas prices and more people driving more fuel efficient cars than ever before we would be producing less exhaust which in turn if going by what he wants us to believe would logically have to make it cooler. Interestingly enough it did not get cooler it got worse. Gas consumptions really has not changed much since the eighties and in the past few years actually dropped. There are more cars on the road but the average fuel economy is way higher. If it is the the cars doing this then why is it that with all of these factors that it has not changed anything? If you follow vehicle emissions you will find that 10 new trucks combined puts out cleaner exhaust than 1 car of the 80's. The math just doesn't add up. I can see why it mat seem like what they say but if it was as they say then it would change as vehicles started putting out less pollution. I can remember back in 1994 when I went on a 400 mile bicycle trip in mid june we had record braking temps of over 100 degrees for 8 days. Four years later we went the same week of the year but this time it was record breaking temperatures on the opposite side of the temperature gauge. If it was global warming it would have been the other way around. Not only this but it is amazing that it quite often takes 50 + years to brake extreme records. If a hundred years ago or 75 years ago it was really hot then and it was just the weather. What has changed?

wrong absolutely wrong, hes the only one willing to cut spending to live within our means. Are you running up all your credit cards? That's what America is doing.

What a charming person you are. You missed that point entirely and I am guessing that is the story of your life. Dont' get it, and you never will.
Aug 11, 2011
Chris(t), just to clarify – I said "devouring the host" I did not say, nor did I imply the host would die. By our own actions we are making this amazing planet a place not compatible with the continuation of human life. But keep YOUR head wherever it is. Clearly it seems to work for you.
Aug 11, 2011
So what is your definition of devour? Look it up. The essence of the word devour in your sentence implies the destruction (end) of the world. Also according to your "thought" we may as well start a population control as well "too many people are like a cancer". And yes, I will keep my head where it is, clearly I can smell the roses intead of my own rear end. Oh, and who gave us the gift of this extraordinary planet?
Aug 11, 2011
democrats, republicans, tea party or whatever you know they are one and the same they do what they do for they own benefit not to the benefit people. You are correct they dont care about us. what they want is the nwo n the new world curency thas why we r on economical turnmoil. Watch all president speech about nwo and you understand what i mean of cultivating for the future.
Aug 11, 2011
I agree there's corruption in politics and both sides of the isle are funded in varying degrees by big money but the Tea Party in particular and Republicans are funded by big corporations and billionaires. Democrats are still trying to uphold people's rights, like the rights of the working class and the rights of the middle class. Republicans are following policies that little by little depress wages, get rid of union's rights, etc. Some of them, like Michelle Bachman, have asked the Federal Government for stimulus money for jobs in their own districts, while advocatin on their platform that they are against stimulus spending. Republicans want tax cuts for the top 1% of the wealthiest people, but they would not approve the payroll tax cut for average people. Because of the influence of the Tea Party, Congress cut funding to the FAA, Federal Aviation Agency. Right away, that lost 4,000 jobs, people were laid off, lost billions in taxes to the government and gave it to the airlines, which pocketed it instead of passing it to customers. I stopped large airport projects, and you remember when air traffic controllers were falling asleep because there was only one on the job? That stopped the funding for more air traffic controllers. It stopped the funding for rural airports (the Tea Party wanted to shut them down). So there really is a distinction between the parties and what they're doing, and these policies affect everyone.
Aug 11, 2011
Once again you say that the majority of scientists or wide consensus or most scientists. Were does this fact come from or is this an assumption? You keep asking for a website, a scientist, or anything resembling a fact yet you continue to use this without providing any evidence. I even used your own webside to prove that your "facts" are misguided and ambiguous. And what side are you talking about? Michelle Malkin is a conservative political commentator that doesn't even begin to say that she's a scientist. That's like saying Michael Moore is the leading authority on climate change or even Al Gore for that matter. Where are his credentials? Look up Richard Lindzen. He's a professor of meteorology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M.I.T.). He's spent his life on the atmosphere and he says it's a bunch of hogwash.
Aug 11, 2011
Here's a wikipedia link. Use the names on it and look them up independently (I did). The debunking of global warming is not that the earth is hotter, cooler, or stable; it's that man has absolutely nothing to do with it and it's the forces of nature at work. If you were at your house, apartment, etc. and said to yourself, "Self, I'm cold, I think I'll turn the thermostat up 0.6 degrees." do you think you're houseplants are going to die and the water in your toilet will dry-up faster? No. The "projection" for climate change is 1 degree by 2100. The graph I gave you earlier shows a temperature difference of 0.6 degrees since 1920 or 30 I think. It's all hype and overreaction to nature.
Aug 11, 2011
Somone get me an umbrella 'cause it's raining cold hard facts up in here!!

You said it all, in all that, all presidents that embrace new world order speech tell you their ayenda except fenedy he was kill before anti nwo speech back then look for it and then you will know all of tha t you wrote. that info is yust what they want you to belive. The media is one of their tool to keep lieying to us.I donot think is a distinction betwin one or another they yust pull in one way there way

tolking back about Al GORE making money or not at list he is doin something that we are not. making that mmuunnyy lol
Aug 11, 2011
Frankly, Allen, I just thought it was ironic that you live in Carbondale or work there. Look, not all eco-solutions are viable. But we need to keep working on them. But if you're one of those people who believethe earth is only 6,000, there's no use even pretending to talk science.
Aug 11, 2011
First, buy a spell checker. Secondly, there is no overwhelming scientific concensus about the warming of the earth being solely created by the actions of mankind. None, nada, zippo, zilch. I challange you to find me a consensus that says, "Because of man, the earth is getting warmer". All of the evidence for the increase in temperature of the earth is all speculative at this point. There simply isn't enough data to prove or disprove the CAUSE of the temperature fluctuation, which by the way is only 0.6 degrees since around 1980 and only goes back to about 1850 and at that time the earth was actually cooling a bit. The FACT is that the temperature of the earth is entirely speculative to the point of being a lie. That's true science, not psuedoscince. And where did you get the idea that Gore is trying to raise taxes? You clearly have no clue what he does or what is going on. And by the way, I don't want my taxes to take care of anything that is unnecessary and neither does anyone else. Why do you think every time they talk about raising taxes it's because of schools, fire, police, or the elderly…..not global warming. If a politician said he was going to raise taxes because of global warming he'd get shut down. Oh, and here's where I got my psuedoscience as you say, it's a website promoting global warming:
http://www.global-greenhouse-warming.com/global-temperature.html
Aug 11, 2011
The deficit business is a sidetrack from the job issue. Notice the Tea Party's not talking about jobs? They got rid of 4,000 jobs when they defunded the FAA and stopped billions of dollars of revenue going to the government. And no, it didn't come back to customers of the airlines. The deficit is important, but Ron Paul and the Tea Party have a meat-axe approach. Their real aim is to grid of Medicare and Social Security. I guess if you don't need Medicare when you're 65 than it won't matter. But you don't know what will happen. If you were disabled by illness or accident, and your savings were all gone, you would wish you had it. Thoew things can be cut with a scalpel instead of a meat-axe. Ron Paul as well as the other Tea Party people are completely unwilling to cut tax cuts and loopholes for the 1% of the country that owns 45% of the wealth. That would actually go a long way to cutting our deficit. On the other hand, if you think they're for the working or middle class, better think twice. They opposed the payroll tax cut, which is for middle and below income working people. They always been against raisibng the minimum wage. It's too bad people believe all the hype but they don't follow politics closely enough to see the effect it could have in their own lives.
Aug 11, 2011
Solitaire Huntress, you haven't been paying attention. Yes, I've been sarcastic, I've derided people's views, etc. but I haven't called people names. On the other hand, you have. I never said don't believe in your religion or don't speak. On the other hand, I've been told to shut up, stop talking, etc. I have observations, yes, about bringing God into this entire debate. I made an observation that it was a cop-out. I never told you not to do it. And if you're the holy, loving, non-insulting Christian, think again. And believe me, I've been called plenty of names by the other side of this debate. I have said anything about Gore, because frankly I'm not focusing on him. I'm focusing on the science of this debate.
Aug 11, 2011
Not a problem, Glenda. I'm glad your doing your research. The main problem with the warming of the earth is there is simply not enough data to difinitvely say it's man's fault. The true scientific data on temperature only goes back to the mid 1800's. CO2 data didn't come around until the mid 1900's so really, the only data to justify CO2= an increase in temperature is less than 100 years. If they used the same +/- statistics to put a man on the moon they'd be crazy!
Aug 11, 2011
Hi Chris. I'm sorry I got heated up during this discussion. Aside from politics and all that, we would probably like each other as people if we met. I shouldn't get involved in personal animosities. I think everyone should agree to disagree, as they say. I do believe the scientific dats is recorded in the ice. There are layers, various gases recorded in those layers – they can tell temperature from those layers. I did look up what you said but I'll go with, especially, the data from Dr. James Hansen – interesting to read what he has studied and conclusions on Wikipedia. However, you'll probably never agree, and that's o.k. Everyone will be happy because I'm getting off this comment line!
Aug 11, 2011
I hope everyone of this comment line have very happy lives! We are all Americans, and we are all human beings who should love one another and I am sorry if I offended anyone. I feel bad about that, I get passionate about my beliefs but that's no excuse.
Aug 12, 2011
Peyton, I understand your sentiment, but there are economic factors to be weighed besides "let's just do everything we can." Let's assume that it were to increase the cost of energy by a considerable sum, and did very little to really lower output. The Kyoto Protocol threatened to increase costs considerably while doing very little reduction in the long run. That's what the debate is really about. Who knows, in 50 years we may be past fossil fuels thanks to better solar panels, space-based solar arrays, fusion or perhaps something truly from left field that we can't even see coming yet like harvesting dark matter from space. To make a hasty knee-jerk decision now would be the wrong move.
Also, the whole doom and gloom outlook of global warming is a bit short-sighted. While there would be some negative consequences, there are positive factors to consider. Some forests might become deserts, but some deserts might become forests as weather patterns shift. Growing seasons might be slightly extended, and farmland further north could possible open up. If the planet does warm up a few degrees, adaption is not out of the question.
So basically, let's not panic. We can't accomplish all our goals at once, and we really do have time on this one.
Aug 12, 2011
here's the article im talking about http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2011/07/29/data-cooling-on-global-warming/
Aug 12, 2011
Chris, are you not aware that the dust bowl was caused by man? Farming methods that depleated the soil, spawned a chain-reaction and created the dust bowl. And as far as an "agenda" if clean air, a healthy environment and continued life on planet earth is an "agenda" it is definately on mine!
Aug 12, 2011
Mike, you criticize Al Gore, (like Rush told you to, in fact I'll bet you call him algore as instructed) but the truth is he is warning people about what science says is a fact. Now if environmentalists are wrong about global warming, we wind up with a cleaner planet alternative energy that doesn't require oil, and we pull money out of the Arab oil market. If environmentalists are right, we do all of that and we save the planet. But Mike if you are wrong, and we follow the do-nothing about it agenda of the Republicans? Good by planet earth. Seems to me to be a no-brainer which direction we should go.
Aug 12, 2011
Dayle, I fully agree that we need to become an energy independent nation that doesn't rely on middle eastern and south american nations. The US has more oil in the ground than anywhere else in the world so why not drill it now while we figure out a more efficient green energy platform to fuel our lives in the future? That removes our immediate dependence and will not only satisfy our energy consumption but will provide an immediate increase to the american economy, both of which we need desperately! As to global warming, all of the evidence pointing to man being the direct cause is merely speculation. There is simply not enough data to support nor deny that fact and to create fear out of it is irresponsible. I can still agree that we need to find cheaper, cleaner energy. I can agree that it will be better for everyone if we do. I agree that we need to get out of the middle east and south america. But to say that we will destroy the world we know if we utilize the US resources to get there is insanity. And the dust bowl was STARTED by a 2 year drought but the drought was SUSTAINED by the farming methods
Aug 12, 2011
And Dayle, the reasonings that you explain to Mike for a better environment sound very similar to some religeous people explaining their faith. By that explination alone you're admitting that you cannot scientifically prove that man is causing global warming. And the "facts" that Al Gore preaches are simply current data. The conclusions he derides from that data is what is severly flawed and preys on paranoia.
