Two questions.
- What is Al Gore's total carbon (equivalent) footprint, taking into account all sinks and sources attributable to him and not simply cherrypicking a single source, his home?
- How is this in any way relevant to his message? That is, how is this anything but ad hominem?
What can I say, the guy knows how to bring the heat. I don't think the message is to forget everything else. There are others who also have a message. To some, that message is more important as it hits closer to home. People are still talking about clear cuts, damage to watersheds, mismanagement of fisheries, and the extinction of species due to farming and agracultural footprint.
I don't see any of them as a valid reason to detract from another cause. In reality they are all connected by the eco web.
We need a win here somewhere. There are those who are working diligently against the environment. Note the return to disposable goods and packaging for convenience sake.
The way to solve big problems is to break them down into the small problems that form the sum of the whole and resolve as many of those as possible.
See that's about all you guys have to offer in opposition.
The findings of scientist after scientist vs a cartoon that assassinates the messenger's character.
Swing batter swing!

The thread is about Al Bore and the so-called Peace Prize. He doesn't deserve it.
Albert's character was killed when he invented the internet.
He's a fat puffy multi-millionaire 'green' hypocrite.
As for the off-topic regurgitation of global warming (!):

Swing and a miss. :lol:
Horse feathers! You got nothing but slag son.
Have you taken a position here on something? I'm not sure I see it. Other than your hyper support of the nanny nanny boo boo coalition of the rebuttleless.

You don't see it alright. :laughing6:
Agreed. We all get an opinion.
If you mean the fact he won the prize, of course he did. That fact is not in dispute.
How he won it, yes, and that he did is what baffles some people. It's hype and the popular media thing to do. Some people get sensitive when such actions are questioned. The scientists deserve it, sure. Not this clown. David Suzuki or David Attenborough would be far more deserving that Al the hypocrite.
But, he was still given a prize for peace. It's an insult to those that have won and did actually take steps to foster peace.
One could say, given the possible outcomes of wide spread global climate change not to mention the wars being fought over oil, that working towards global consensus on environmentalism and conservation IS in fact a large step towards world peace.
