Why are Al Gore and David de Rothschild "teaching" us about global warming instead of scientists?

Question

Especially when people like David Mayer de Rothschild knows less about science than most of us do? He said that the reason why Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn are all experiencing warming and melting ice caps is because they're "closer to the sun" than Earth--they're not. How can someone who doesn't know basic science/astronomy write books on global warming to "educate" us? And are the Rothchilds and Rockefellars advocates that we can trust?

Answer 1

GLOBAL WARMING IS A NATURAL OCCURRENCE AS THE EARTH AND SUN GO THROUGH CYCLES . BUT IF THE TRUTH IS TOLD B.S. ARTIST LIKE AL GORE CAN'T MAKE MAKE MONEY . WHEN AL GORE RAN AGAINST BUSH HIS NET WORTH WAS 1 MILLION NOW WITH ALL THE GLOBAL WARMING B.S. HE HAS SPEWED OUT HIS NET WORTH IS AROUND 100 MILLION . HE RODE IT TO THE BANK BECAUSE STUPID PEOPLE LISTEN TO HIS B.S. AND DONATE MONEY AND THAT MAKES HIM A SCAM ARTIST .

Answer 2

They are only figureheads for the real scientists.  Hopefully our scientists that are trying to make difference are spending all their time in their laboratories, instead of being involved in all this globe trotting promotional stuff :)  If not, we might as well throw our hands up now. . . :) NOT!!!

Great question!!!  It's awesome the amount of people raising awareness anymore :)

Answer 3

Because al gore the bore invented the internet and love story was about him and tipper..

Oh how much electric does he use in one of his houses again.

Answer 4

Yes Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn are not closer to the Sun than the Earth that is correct by the same token Jupiter and Saturn are gas giants (i.e.) they don't have ice caps at all, and never did.

Mars southern pole is reducing, cause unknown, it has been put forward by 1 Russian scientist that this proves the Sun is the cause, only problem is none of the satellites that monitor the Sun (and have for 30 years) show this increase in output

And as for learning about global warming from "David de Rothschild" I had never heard of him before this question.

Answer 5

Because the media likes to hype problems with no real solutions.

Answer 6

because most scientist feel it will happen anyway becuase it already happen naturaly. Al Gore just wants to make more money. dont preach to me about global warming when he does 10 times more polluting  then the average person. And if he really cared dont you think he would be vegetarian which scientist say is the best way to help the earth.

Answer 7

Scientists have been talking about global warming for years, but the public tends to listen to celebrities more.

Answer 8

why not scientists?

Because Bush threatened to fire them if they talked to the press.

there was a $10,000,000 report, that took several years to compile, on the effects global warming would have on the US.

Bush ordered that it not be published, and that all references to it be deleted from any government document.

That's the modern equivalent of burning books.

<<He said that the reason why Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn are all experiencing warming and melting ice caps is because they're "closer to the sun" than Earth>>

so, what did he really say?

<<ROTHSCHILD: "Because those planets are closer to the sun, my friend.">>

gee, i don't see any mention of earth there at all.

could you point it out if there is one please.

OR, did he mean that they were closer to the sun than they might be at other times of "their year".

Answer 9

Well, I studied things like formation of ice ages, glaciers, global warming etc way back in the early 70's as part of a university course in biophysics.

Now I observe that 99% of the population has not studied those things over the past 35 years. The public, up to a few years back, had not learned anything. about it. So our scientists have been doing just one awful job of teaching us.

We should have had someone with more science creds than either of the people you mention to convey this info. But even getting people to listen seems to have been a major problem.

People seem to turn off when anyone talks science to them.

Solving that problem by having a dumbed down presentation by a silver tongued orator has many pitfalls. After the orator has got our attention, we still have not learned much about the basic science. We are still totally dependent on a science body that we have barely been introduced to. We still have not learned to understand what scientists are really saying.

Worst, we are easily distracted by other non-scientist silver tounged orators who claim to be telling us what science is saying.

Answer 10

IN MY OPINION AL GORE DOES'NT KNOW THE CAUSE OR HOW TO DELETE GLOBAL WARMING. ALSO WHAT THEY BLAMED CAUSED G.W. YOU YOURSELF CAN WATCH IT DECIPATE BEFORE YOUR VERY EYES.

Answer 11

I completely agree with YOU. Gore is just in it for the money that he is raising, when he graduates with a degree in meteorology, biology, or even anything in the scientific field, then he might say something I might listen to. People should quit listening to all of these other people and their opinions and study up on this for themselves and then come to a conclusion and stop taking every out spoken persons word on things. He said it so it must be true right??? Please!

Answer 12

They don't "teach" us instead of scientists, but in addition to scientists.  That's a huge distinction.

David de Rothschild was not on my radar, but he is now, thanks.  In searching to learn who he was I found a few cool new links. Again, thanks.

Both these guys seem to have paid their dues.  The more you honestly know about them, the more likely you are to admit it, I believe.

Do they really "know" basic science?  They're a lot further along on these topics than the layman.  They've been on topic for years, and have dedicated themselves to advancing a cause for which they are sincere.

I think we could all do a lot worse than listen to these gentlemen.

Answer 13

Us?  They may be your source of information, they're not mine.  Or world leaders, who acknowledge global warming is real.

I listen to the scientists.  Most all say that global warming is real, and mostly caused by us.  The following have issued official statements in that regard:

The National Academy of Sciences (NAS), the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Institute of Physics, the American Chemical Society, the American Geophysical Union, the American Meteorological Association, etc.

Those are people you can trust.  Particularly the first.  The NAS is 1800 of the countries best scientists, selected by their peers.  Being elected to the NAS is like winning the Oscar in science.

Most everyone bringing up Gore here these days is a "skeptic".  He's never cited as "proof" by the serious people here.

EDIT - The NASA scientists who did the work on Mars say it's because of giant dust storms.

I hadn't heard Jupiter and Saturn were warming.  Source?

Anyway, we KNOW it's not the Sun, because we measure the Sun.  Solar radiation on Earth has been decreasing (slightly) for years.

Answer 14

People like Al Gore follow any thing that benefit himself

Answer 15

People are believing what they hear.  If they went to school and actually studied this stuff...they would know, and hate the fact, that Al Gore made a million over something he knows nothing about.  The Earth goes through changes...ish happens.  We are actually on the verge of an ice age...I believe in recycling, but the earth is not getting warmer!  Will someone please visit China?  The young people there do not even know what a blue sky is.  It's the US pushing this c**p to get your minds off the real issues.  I am not a conspiracy theorist...at all.  It's just not real.  No other country talks about it.  Maybe recycling, that's just an obviuos thing.  Check the temps people...and do not give us the polar cap stuff...

Answer 16

That's only in America. In most countries it is the real scientists doing it. Half the Americans I talk to don't even realise that Al Gore shares the Noble prize equally with 100s of scientists.

Answer 17

By popularizing the work of scientist

Answer 18

Oh the scientists teach too.  It's just that most Americans don't pay much attention to what professors teach these days.  They do however go to movies, watch TV, and go on the Internet.  That's why a lot of people are hearing about Climate Change from Al Gore's movie rather than a textbook or lecture.

Answer 19

Everyone wants a clean earth.  When people hear other people say that humans are destroying the earth, they naturally are concerned and want to do something about it.  Al Gore, David DeRothschild, David Rockefeller, Henry Kissinger, and the other powerful elites around the world are aware of our human nature, and they exploit it - for financial gain, but mainly for power.  They already have all of the money in the world and shares in the corportion that prints the money (Imagine if you could print your own money!).

They are proponents of world government - a world government in which they are in charge.  They are using global warming to push their agenda on us - and if you aren't naive enough to go along with it, you are ridiculed and silenced.  

I am glad to see that some people aren't taking the bait, despite the pressure and constant propaganda.

Have you noticed that the establishment has really beefed up the climate change propaganda, or "mass persuasion campaign" (sounds like brainwashing to me)?

These people are brainwashing a whole new generation of Americans in the public schools.  They are teaching our children to be good little slaves, and by pandering to the lowest common denominator, dumbing them down (probably enough to make them oblivious to the fact that Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn are NOT closer to the Sun).  The schools are constantly searching them and treating them like prisoners.   My nephew, 6 years old, committed a though crime the other day (he said that something was "g*y") and was sent to the principal's office.   If you have children in public school, GET THEM OUT NOW!

There is an alterior motive for everything they do that appears good on the surface.  Women's liberation, for instance, sounds like a great thing, but it had a purpose for the elites as well - to get both men and women working and paying the Federal Income Tax (which is unconstitutional for most US citizens), and to get children into their training camps at an even younger age.  Have you noticed that it takes two middle-class workers to support a family now, whereas it used to only take one? They use the media to manipulate society.  "Ms. Magazine" was bankrolled by the CIA and the Rockefeller foundation, among others.  The Council on Foreign Relations is made up of powerful and influential men and women, and they use their influence to push their agenda.  Most of the Presidential candidates were CFR members - and the only ones who were considered viable and given any attention by the mainstream media were the CFR members.  Of course, now we are down to Hillary, Obama, and McCain, all of whom are CFR members.

They will soon try to convince us that we need to have our medical history in a microchip implanted in us.  They have already started the propaganda.  What do you think all of this talk about government-run health care is about?  They want to take control of health care...and then, perhaps 10 years down the road, in order to get the health care, you will need to have your medical history implanted (it will just make things so much more convenient when the hospitals are flooded with people and half of them don't speak english!).  This is just a theory of mine - they will get their way eventually, one way or another.

Aaron Russo was friends with Nick Rockefeller before Nick explained to Aaron what was going on.  Give this article a read: http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/jan...

Republicans, most of whom used to be conservative, are being manipulated by Fox News.  Fox News is supposed to be the "conservative" network, right?  They have managed to convince conservatives that George Bush is one of them, when George Bush has expanded the federal government, spent more money than Bill Clinton (much of it on entitlements), leaves the border wide open while we are supposed to be threatened by terrorism, has been pro-gun control, is now moving us towards a North American Union, and, as you may have guessed, now "sees the threat" of global warming and wants to do something about it.  But conservatives are supposed to overlook all of this, because the one alternative in the two-party system is slightly more evil.
