Here are some additional facts.
First, the right wing slime machine did not get their information from the ultility and so I wonder what they are basing this report on. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17369241/Second, Vice President Gore's office has passed the following information on. http://www.dailykos.com/comments/2007/2/26/21750/6965/394#c394
100 percent of the power the Gores use in their home (and in all their homes though I wouldn't bring this up) is green power.
And in thirty years, there will be a new truth. There always is. Thirty years ago we were all supposed to be panicked about the fact that we were entering an ice age.
There will always be scientists that look for disaster and mayhem around every corner, and there will always be people that are ready and willing to be frightened by what the scientists say.
SSDD.
I don't get that either, Galahad. Nor do I get the whole "I'm doing, so you need to do it too!" attitude.
Want to go to all CFLs? Have at it! But unless you're paying my electric bill, the kind of bulb I use is not anyone else's business.
Do you want to persuade or do you want to win an argument? Telling somebody "you're stupid - stop being stupid and be like me and all will be well" is not a great way to win friends and influence people.
Just watched it.
I am at a loss for words.
Very powerful and very scary![]()
I watched alot of scary movies when I was young also. The "Day After" scared me also, but it was fiction and so is Al Gore's movie. Until we can come to an agreement on the environment, I'm not going to change my lifestyle because of one movie that sole purpose was to make money and form nonthinking peoples opinions.![]()
Do you reject all the reports of Global warming trends as fiction also?
I'm not rejecting reports of global warming trends. I question the claim the man is the primary cause. And I don't appreciate the "scare" tactics. Over in England (I think), some kids are losing sleep because they're afraid. Who's scaring them?
It's my world and i'll spoil it as fast as I want
That's strange are you JPN4265 as well or do you feel free to answer for them.
What's scaring the children? Probably people with, it is not happening, its not my fault, we can do nothing about it attitudes.
But I got accused of telling people they were stupid and assuming that Bucknaked didn't love his children.![]()
Neither.
Really???? Actually, it's the dire predictions of what will happen if nothing is done immediately. It's the same scare tactics used 30 years ago about global cooling. It's the same scare tactics used during the cold war. And it's the same people.
I'm not sure why it bothers you so much what *I* choose to do - is it because you feel that if you change your lifestyle, everyone else should have to do it too?
It seems to me that if you feel you are doing everything you should be doing, that would be good enough for you.

I was not aware of Al Gore making those comments in 1976 regarding global cooling or the cold war.
The scientific community has come into agreement on this issue. There is a concept called peer review where respectable journals and publications have other scientists in the field review an article before it is published. The tobacco companies used to have problems with peer review and so they paid scientists to produce fake articles that were "published" in fake or none-peer reviewed publications. EXXON and the AEI have been using the same trick until EXXON decided to cut off the AEI's funding.Until we can come to an agreement on the environment, I'm not going to change my lifestyle because of one movie that sole purpose was to make money and form nonthinking peoples opinions.![]()
Again, according to the study cited, all peer review studies support global warming.Back in Tennessee on Tuesday, Gore told a crowd of about 50 people at the U.S. Media Ethics Summit II that the presentation's single most provocative slide was one that contrasts results of two long-term studies. A 10-year University of California study found that essentially zero percent of peer-reviewed scientific journal articles disagreed that global warming exists, whereas, another study found that 53 percent of mainstream newspaper articles disagreed the global warming premise.
He noted that recently the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released its fourth unanimous report calling on world leaders to take action on global warming.
"I believe that is one of the principal reasons why political leaders around the world have not yet taken action," Gore said. "There are many reasons, but one of the principal reasons in my view is more than half of the mainstream media have rejected the scientific consensus implicitly and I say 'rejected,' perhaps it's the wrong word. They have failed to report that it is the consensus and instead have chosen balance as bias.
"I don't think that any of the editors or reporters responsible for one of these stories saying, 'It may be real, it may not be real,' is unethical. But I think they made the wrong choice, and I think the consequences are severe.
"I think if it is important to look at the pressures that made it more likely than not that mainstream journalists in the United States would convey a wholly inaccurate conclusion about the most important moral, ethical, spiritual and political issue humankind has ever faced."
