how do we know these polar ice caps are not melting because we forgot to replenish the ozone layer 15 years ago by launching those rockets up to the south pole with fresh ozone...or has everyone forgot. It may not be co2 induced global warming that will flood the world, but forgetfulness…

Yeah, fuck Al Gore and hurray for that needle headed prick Glenn Beck. Heh, at least you have your priorities in line when it comes to where you get your info. I don't see this as a reason to throw the baby out with the bathwater. Listen to Gore's words; if they're reasonable accept them, if they aren't then don't.

If you want you can then check out This. Which kicks the movie in the teeth as best it can.

True, That he is. The message needs to come from the people anyway. I don't know about you but I usually do things because its a good way to do it, not because someone told me to. I think thats most of the problem. Humanity for the most part wants to be able to do their own thing and not always stick to that fine line. But if the masses can see change with their own eyes and not with their ears then there will be resolution...

I saw inconvenient truth, and don't recommend others to watch it. Read the book instead. The movie is just blatant passionate propoganda, very typical of a politician. I feel that anyone who feels the need to make a film that way is not right.

Al gore is not the final say on the matter, and he's not a scientist. There are many many scientists debating the issue, and one mister al gore is not the final say on the matter.

Don't support crooked politicians. If you're a democrat, and you think being a democrat politician makes it honest just think again. Likewise with republicans. It's like argueing over pro wrestling. It's all fake.

Support real research by real scientists with your dollars, and make sure you're not donating to some organization that is serving private ends rather than the truth.
