LAS CRUCES, New Mexico Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore has called for better use of the space resource to battle Earths climate crisis, enlisting entrepreneurial muscle to help solve global issues that threaten the planets habitability.
Gore said he has long been a fan of faster, cheaper, better approaches that allow the private sector to exploit the space resource in a responsible and creative, and cost-efficient way.
As an example, Gore spotlighted the competitive and dynamic forces unleashed by the entrepreneurial growth of the Internet.
We ought to learn that lesson and apply it to space, Gore said. Because of the environmental climate crisis, we need to speed up the introduction of private companies into the creative exploitation of the space resource."
Gore spoke as part of a Wirefly X Prize Cup Executive Summit 2006 [image], held here October 19, attended by a range of executives, visionaries and space and high-tech leaders.

"He wants a one world government controlled by the U.N."
That is the dange rof him and the likes of Kerry/Kennedy/Klinton. These people are dangerous and MUST never be allowed near the White House
Yep , Twlight Zone story called Midnight Sun ..It was a good one .
I wish Scotty would beam Gore into the outer space with no return.
Laugh again. A perfect eco-system........
Aha, it was a TV episode? Then, perhaps that episode was based on a short story... For some reason, I'm thinking Robert Heinlein, but maybe I'm wrong. Thanks.
The crisis is that algore is off his meds again.
-I think I saw that one.

BTTT!
Bubble headed booby! ;)
There's a significant problem with that approach.
Siren up on Drudge. (not)
It's not global on Mars.
Global warming on Mars? explains why.
I learned in B-school, faster, better, cheaper, pick two. You can't have all three. It's axiomatic. It's funny to hear those who present themselves as being smarter than the rest of us reveal their ignorance.
If it's faster and better, it ain't going to be cheaper.
If it's better and cheaper, it's gonna take a little more time.
If it's faster and cheaper, quality will suffer. It won't be better.
That is a lot of listening time. Would you believe twenty real climate experts? Not that anyone can predict climate all that well, but relatively speaking there are experts among us.
Funny, my first thought on seeing that picture was to wonder what coat size. I'm no tailor, but I guessed 54 long too. GMTA.
I agree. It might be possible to get twenty climate experts to speak for each side, depending on how broadly the term "expert" is interpreted.
I am SO thankful that Al invented the internet, otherwise we would never have known about this in time...
