Question on Global Warming:Is it Al Gore trying to get attention,or is it real?

Answer 1

Al Gore is a publicity hound, which is why he chose a career in politics.  In addition to gaining attention, his anti-global warming campaign is a vehicle to promote his carbon-trading company that has earned him more than $100 million so far.

Answer 2

It's the real deal. Go see a glacier while you can, chances are your kids will never see one.

I'm not a big Al Gore fan, but that doesn't mean Global Warming is a myth.

Answer 3

Al Gore is trying to keep his political career on life support.  His movie - A Convenient Lie - is full of just that lies, damned lies and statistics.

Answer 4

real or not, we still shouldnt pollute the air. for sure the nature is already dying. plants cant live with such a dirty air, kids can get all kinds of lung diseases, it would be amazing to open the window and smell the fresh air. but it stinks.

we still get other benefits if global warming will never happen. electricty bill wont be that big if we save with energy and they can also save with fuel for power plants, which also means that they might shutdown nuclear power plants. as I said air can be cleaner. not to mention that there are more and more people getting rich in poorer countries, so they will pollute the air more and we have the chance to decrease the air pollution.

the world wont end if we live GREEN.

Answer 5

well no one know for sure Al Gore is just going on based on the most recent events, BUT pollution is a big deal

Answer 6

Al Gore is an idot. Do your homework, it is not as bad as they make it seem.

Answer 7

Al Gore is getting attention to increase awareness about global climate change.  Towards this end he wrote a book and participated in making a film.  For these efforts he shared a Nobel Peace Prize.  Further attention was received when he donated the prize money to a group that planned to use the funds to promote global warming awareness.

After his defeat in the Presidential race, Gore could have faded into the scenery or worked the lecture circuit.  He could have thrown his hat into the race for President and gotten a lot of attention for doing that.  But he felt the work he is doing is more important.  

I agree.  

I know enough about the man to admire and respect him.  He groomed himself for political office and conducted himself with decorum while in office, something Clinton failed to do.  And look at all the attention that brought him?
