A It's a horrible story. Before he died, Roger Revelle co-authored a popular paper saying, 'We know too little to take any action based on global warming. If we take any action it should be an action that we can justify completely without global warming.' And Gore's staffers tried to have his name posthumously removed from that paper claiming he had been senile. And one of the other authors took it to court and won. It's funny how little coverage that got.

Never heard that.

We should learn math and physics so we don't get fooled by this idiocy.

I couldn't agree more. However, I know of certain people who alegedly have learned math and physics, and they still got fooled by this idiocy and can't discuss it rationally.

"Never heard that."

Neither have I, but I'm planning on looking for that paper and information on Gore's attempted deception. This should be interesting.

Q Having said that, are there any behaviours we should be changing, as a society, in order to protect our planet?

A Yes. We should learn math and physics so we don't get fooled by this idiocy.

Thanks, best laugh I've had in a week.

"I mean, emissions trading is going to be a multi-trillion dollar market. Emissions alone would keep small countries in business."

And at least one country that lost its "Empire" is really pushing the global warming business.

Eventually, Lintzen will get tired of carrying the ball against the great weight of the politically-correct green movement.

When he gives up, there won’t be many truth tellers left.

Like religion used to force everyone into saying “I believe in God”, the global warming movement has forced everyone into saying “I believe in global warming.”

Q How cynical do you think Gore is?

A It's hard for me to tell. I think he's either cynical or crazy.

I pick both. They are not mutually exclusive.

Nice post. Nice find. I like keeping up on this fraud (Socialism by another means)

I liked the Protest Warrior sign VOTE GREEN -SO WE CAN BE POOR AND MISERABLE TOGETHER -as I remember it. It speaks volumes.
