Al Gore has probably been good and bad people seem to either love or hate him he did (with some errors) get the infomation out to the general public.
Sorry, whos Micheal Moore never heard of him.
I do believe, when most of the world%26#039;s scientists agree on a new idea, they%26#039;re probably right. I do believe the science of global warming was around before it turned political.
Do you really take people like Rush Limbaugh seriously?
Here is my evidence:
It was real cold this year.
The glaciers are growing larger.
Many years ago we had palm trees in Wyoming and now its always cold there.
The woolly mammoth is now frozen in his once tropical paradise.
It snowed in Texas in April.
My cat grew more fur.
Our pool is 2 degrees cooler than last year .
Seriously , I am not worried about an increase in Co2 of 25-30 % because volcanic activity causes most of it and the earth averages 300-600 ppm and we are at 380 ppm .
We will have to remove the objectivity we have associated with the changes going around on this planet.
Earth has been in a state of constant change and always will till it dies a planetary death. We are distanced from that period by more than what human imagination can come up with.
Now I noticed that things actually have been changing since the time I have memory of in my childhood.
I have a bigger house, more comfortable beds and better medication. But I also have lesser air space around me. What was open ground is roads and bricks and concrete. I buy water, I buy oxygen rich things. I see ads on food items that carry %26#039;pesticide-free%26#039; labels.
We used to get water digging 15 feet now its beyond 300feet.
The river in my city was free flowing, big and beautiful in all its flows. Now its dirtied with, what someone told me, was chemical waste from factories where probably they are spinning the latest designer wear. Last week I remember reading in newspapaer, that along the river bank, for almost a mile, they collected dead fish.
I feel happy that I wont be dying of TB, cholera or typhoid but it appears that bird flu could be a bigger epedemic than human kind ever witnessed. We have invented a lot bilogical %26#039;weapons%26#039; and things like AIDS. We also seem to have processed and heaped certain metals in a form where a big explosion is now only a button press away.
What else .. I feel happy that I am earning a handsome salary. My bank account is really swell. But rising oil price worries me a lot and I have to put more time and brain into thinking how I can eat better and have my children live well.
I dont think my gread grandfather had to worry all that much about food or his sons. Actually he didn%26#039;t have to, as I am told.
When young I used to sometimes use my finger to brush my teeth now I seem to have forgotten that and go for toothbrushes designed with cutting edge tech.
So yes things are a changing and how I wish I was born 100 years earlier.
We can possibly extend humand existence on earth a few more days by slight compromise in our %26#039;comfortable%26#039; and %26#039;greedy%26#039; lives. But tell me .. can we ever get all of the people on this planet to think alike. Have they ever in our history thought alike. That would un human like , wouldn%26#039;t it. If it did ever have to happen it would also probably take a drastic change in our mindset .. probably something at war footing.. or maybe a war itself.. a war against all those that want things to continue the way they are. That will happen it was %26#039;designed%26#039; to happen. Untill then I think the section of humanity that really is worried about xistence will continue to get more worried.
So yes I dont take them anymore seriously than my own beliefs. They are just getting a visual and literature of things we all are already aware of. They need to do something more drastic .. probably AlGore jumping off empire state bldg in protest can be an encouraging start.
PS: I completely agree with %26#039;Rick S%26#039;.
+ I didn%26#039;t know AlGore owns a lot of companies or stake therein. Selfish people like him. But see, he is only human(cept that he is an a**h**e type). :)
