I don't give two shits about Al Gore or about your views on global warming are, but does it not occur to you that perhaps Al Gore feels that by flying to various lectures around the world and by getting his perspectives broadcast to as many people as possible that he can have a potentially massive impact on the way people live their lives and thus reduce emissions on a scale that makes his contribution to this problem negligible?

It's a completely reasonable position for him to have and only someone who was completely bereft of the ability to think even semi-critically would not understand it.
Why doesn't Al Gore use his greatest invention The Internet to reach more people.....wouldn't that be more "green"?


CFH, that's fine, you have every right to not care about my views on Global Warming or Al Gore or anything, but you don't have to read my opinions either, I'm certainly not forcing anyone to.


I just find it odd, especially for people who claim to love science so fucking much for them to basically claim that if everyone just walked to work and there were no cars, no factories, no carbon emissions at all that there would be no such storms as the one that hit Oklahoma......on second thought I don't find that odd, I find that idiotic.... incredibly so. And why would I bring that up? Well because right after that tornado touched down I mean RIGHT AFTER there was this little gem in DC...

To which I say, BULL CRAP!
As far as I know, Al Gore does use the internet to spread his views. He just also uses other means as well because he obviously feels so strongly about it. I simply don't see any hypocrisy in his actions.
