How dare you question Al Gore's authority. Mr. Gore is trying to save our planet. He is a very intelligent man, after all he did invent the internet and technically he was elected president, you know. We need to listen to everything he and the other liberals say. They are going to lead us into utopia. Without their leadership we will be doomed. If Al Gore says something that does not make since to the rest of us, it is because liberals are so much smarter and well educated than the rest of us. We deserve to be talked down to. Some may think Gore is an arrogant fool but I know better.... I have seen the light and that light is .....Al Gore

The only thing, that is contributing to global warming is the natural cycle of the earths ever changing climate. Doesn't anyone bother to look at the history of the planet to know that we have been colder and warmer then we are know.

What did they blame it on then? Common sense, doesn't that tell you if the earths climate has had drastic changes in the past, Whats stopping it now. Do they think because we are here, that the earth isn't going to go threw changes any longer? We have had ice ages, Tropics in Ohio, The little Ice age, maunder medium effects, the medieval warm period. oceans have risen and fallen. continents have broke up and are still on the move.I mean come on.

haha oh Al Gore you rogue. Let's take the countless factories around the globe and the millions of cars that infest the roads choking the life out of every breathing creature....oh wait is that where he got the idea? Sorry Gore, just because it's killing the individual doesn't mean that it's killing the population or ruining our ozone layer.

Based on the fact that:

- the internet is the fastest growing communication medium.

- Computers, routers, servers and landline technology consume massive amounts of electricity and have lots of waste heat.

- Electricity is primarily generated from fossil fuels and nuclear technology (heat producers).

- the fact that Al Gore invented the internet.



...one could argue that AL GORE is the primary reason for global warming....

Global warming is a very serious issue. It will effect the near future as well as its effecting us now. See I mean heck I live in the south and we use to have snow. We dont have it now days. Also cigarette smoking is bad as well. Buts its ur individual freedom. Have fun with dieing. You will cause ur grandsons/daughters or their kids deaths. Murderers.

Global warming may be a real problem, but that doesn't mean that Al Gore is not a far-out loony tune. He obviously is.

Well, if you study how many homefires and blazes are started by someone falling asleep w/ a cigarette in bed...then yeah,..otherwise, I'm not sure about global warming secondary to cigarette smoke..

I suggest you drop the stupid prejudice and start listening about global warming..it is very real, and to think otherwise is to cast us on a path that is irreversable within 9 years. IF we do not take steps today to lower our emissions, it will be too late, as the chain reaction will not be stoppable. This is not a joke to be played with. Wise up and listen for a change...I suspect you are in a serious state of denial for some unknown reason. Are you a Bush fan?
