What's Al Gore gonna do now?

Question

The Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine this week announced that 31,072 U.S. scientists signed a petition stating that "… There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane or other greenhouse gases is causing, or will cause in the future, catastrophic heating of the Earth’s atmosphere and disruption of the Earth’s climate..."

Eminent theoretical physicist Freeman Dyson is among the many distinguished signatories.

The OISM petition represents a direct challenge to the Al Gore-touted notion that a consensus of scientists has determined that catastrophic manmade global warming is real and that any debate over the science is pointless.

Answer 1

Why has there been a change on global temperature over the years that has been marked by the age of industrialization? Magical gnome fairies? I don't think so...

Answer 2

THANK YOU!!!

I was looking for that information I needed it in my other question about why all the candidates are falling for this Global Warming lie which it obvioulsy is considering all the scientists are coming out finally and stating it is...  I love it!  

Now we can watch the liberals and environmental wackos squirm...

Oh yeah, and maybe finally we can start drilling for oil which we need BADLY!  Our own president warns us if we don't, he has been advised our economy will get WORSE!  He is the President, don't you think his information is the best available?  I mean, come on already people...  please stop falling for this scam!

So with all that said, anything we can do to stop this movement (that we need to stop burning fossil fuels or we will burn up or drown or something bad like that) is a good thing, thanks for your brilliant post!  You get a star!

BTW - Randy, I'm certainly no fan of Mr. Global Warming himself, but I found that 'Al Gore said he invented the Internet' thing was sort of blown out of proportion.  He never said that actually, some other politician did so all the newspapers ran with it since they could get away with it and it just got out of control or something.  Turns out, he was sort of responsible for the Internet at least, he was the guy who kind of got legislation going for an  Internet system which for people to use at home and small busineses and such going back in the 80s, it was his job I think.  Just so you know...

If you say things like that people may ignore the important stuff, like how he really did make up stuff about Global Warming (I think just to scare people, for vanity and probably he's doing it for profit, i.e. his stupid so called movie), etc.  

But back to the point, what I think Al Gore will be known for instead of his work getting the Internet ball rolling (and aside from fooling everyone about the global warming hoax), is that he's a big hypocrite because he helps create more CO2 than most people in the world which is pretty messed up I think.

Answer 3

Man

Bear

Pig

Answer 4

put his head back in the sand!

or elsewhere...!

Answer 5

Al Gore and all of those scientists are part of a big scam manipulated by the shadow government to create panic & confusion in societies around the globe.

They are using the Hegelian Dialetic techniques.  Hitler & Stalin used with sucess in their governments to brainwash the masses.

Wake up!

My 2 cents.

Answer 6

writes so books

Answer 7

Well, he can't go on as a thief since he got caught stealing from the Whitehouse so easy and we found out that he didn't invent the Internet and we know now he can't stop El Nino and we know he used other peoples film to make his and these mean ole scientist keep harassing him about no global warming so I guess it's back to the tobacco farm, hydraulic mining  or used cars.

Answer 8

he will continue to milk the americans for all they are worth.

Answer 9

Al Bore will continue on his rampage because it was never about science, ....It is his religion and anyone who doubts him will also deny the Holocaust of WWII.

In other words he will keep screaming in  our ears about Global Warming.

Answer 10

he'll keep chuggin along until his steamboat runs out of steam.  he invented the global warming, he can't stop now

Answer 11

First, he'll wax much more eloquent via plagiarism, while shining Obamas two left shoes.

Second...he'll write so books.

Answer 12

I think he's gonna want a re-count on those signatures. He then will refuse defeat for approximately three weeks until he finally gets schooled three or four times and shown "YOU'VE LOST! GIVE IT UP!"

Answer 13

He has to give his medal back!!  Right NOW!!

Answer 14

Answer 16

maybe he should invent the tubinet and put it in his base ment

Answer 17

What he has done for the last decade. Lie his *** of to the bank and cash in on all the dopes who believe him

Answer 18

We've been all over this on this site for over a week now.  I checked out the parent source.  Look at the board of directors.  Not an environmentalist in the lot.  All men too, if I recall.  Not a representative board -- it's all industry, and they have an axe to grind, a grudge to bear.  

Not all industry is like that.  The smart ones are ahead of the curve, and years from now they will be rewarded in history and financially for having the courage to break away from the pack and lead.

The petition is not a serious challenge to what Gore says or to the scientists who support global climate change.  

It feels good when you try to become part of the solution.  You should try it sometime.

Answer 19

My friend who is a massage therapist signed the petition. She took enough anat & phys classes to be described as a "scientist".

Answer 20

he's going to continue - why be confused by facts?
