Is Tony Blair becoming another Al Gore?

Question

He seems as active (if not more so) than Al Gore in the fight against Global Warming. One would think the former leader of the UK would have had access to the best scientific data available on the subject.

Answer 1

"  One would think the former leader of the UK would have had access to the best scientific data available on the subject.  "

Presumably this is why he is such an activist.

Answer 2

He is a politician and just like the rest of the liberals, have made global warming a political agenda instead of based on REAL SCIENTIFIC FACT....

LAST NIGHT I GOT REAL COLD AND WONDERED WHERE MY CO2 WENT?  Where is all of this thermal energy????????   Why does CO2 get cold at night????  How in the world does CO2 store thermal energy or heat, yet can't keep it until the next day, yet again PERPETUATES TEMPERATURE INCREASES OVER HUNDREDS OF YEARS??????  HOW????

GLOBAL WARMING CAN'T EVEN PASS THE DAY AND NIGHT TEST!!!!!  THAT's FOR REAL

Answer 3

It does appear that he's taking an active role on the political side (addressing the problem).  Considering the overwhelming evidence on the scientific side, the political side is now becoming the more important of the two, so it's good to see a high profile person like Blair taking such an active role on the issue.
