With Earth Day coming up next week, it is time for us to bring a new optimism into what we do, how we think, and how we inspire others regarding our planet and in solving the climate crisis. Al Gore brings a refreshing new look to this crisis and the opportunity we have as the generation with the challenge of solving it with his TED talk. I want my child to ask the question in years to come: how did you find the moral fortitude to solve this crisis and leave future generations with a sustainable planet. The other question is simply not an option.

    carbon dioxide is a trace element in the atmosphere.

    water vapor is 24,000 times as strong of an influence in "greenhouse effect" than carbon dioxide. and it looks very much like there are "negative feedback" effects that mitigate the effects of changes in world temperature.

    this movie from Al uses the same misrepresentations as his "inconvenient lies" did...

    if you don't think i'm interested in things like Al, take a look at this... http://www.plusaf.com/bluntconsulting/heliosproject.htm

    beware making sudden generalizations and drawing conclusions about me...

  • Sorry, already saw that on the CEI BS website. And the Heartland Institute...and all the other skeptic sites that continue to spew rhetoric because they can't admit they are part of the problem. I'm with Al Gore. The debate is over. The glaciers are melting. The world is now in need of solutions, not more rhetoric. This past March was the warmest month on record worldwide. To the skeptics I then say, enough stalling. Either you are going to stand up for this planet and do your part, or you will just have to move over and let the people who really care do what needs to be done to solve this crisis.

  • @JfG.... well-done, Jan... spoken as a TRUE zealot, not just a flag-waving, starry-eyed convert, but a TRUE zealot! yes, you don't have to even remind us... we KNOW "you're for Gore."


    repeat after me:

    The skeptic sites spew rhetoric....
    [so i'm not going to listen to or believe them]

    they can't admit....
    [but neither can I...]

    The debate is over.....
    ['cause i might lose it...]

    last month was the warmest on record ....
    [other than a 1000-1200 or so years ago...]

    do your part or LET PEOPLE WHO REALLY CARE....
    [scare the hell out of people with unscientific claims]

    do what needs to be done to solve this crisis....
    [we know what's right... just as US]


    every word you utter [type] just reinforces what Spencer is saying in his paper AND in my 40th Law....

    http://www.plusaf.com/falklaws.htm#40th ... and for those of you too lame to click or copy/paste... here it is for YOU....

    Falk's Fortieth Law: "It is IMPOSSIBLE to refule an argument from a conspiracy theorist, because they will never believe ANY argument to the contrary."
    +af, 04.08.2008 Thank you, Vierotchka and Current.com!

    dang.. got a typo to fix, there... thanks for drawing my attention to it...

    ah, one of the final rules of debating... if there's a chance you're faced with a better argument, declare "the debate is over..."

    gotta write that one up, too... maybe the 41st Law!!!

    thanks, Jan.

  • I guess it is time to stop giving the priority to the "Culture of Distraction" and to do this together to reach the general population, the kids, the adults and the elderly to act Today. Tomorrow will be too late.

    I am not leaving anyone out from this project and I want to send a special message to the "ADA," aka "American Disability Act," Agencies and Commissions to listen very carefully to the Health and Environmental Issues that it has been laying out and to start to correct their mistakes on acoustics at the Public Transportation level. The sooner, the better.

    My other message goes to OSHA, Industry and Commerce and to The three powers of Government at the Federal and Local Levels to correct and unify the Acoustic Laws that will have the purpose to protect and respect humans.

    These health and environmental messes come from the top and disseminates to the bottom of society negatively affecting us with circumvented and unattended consequences!

    Let us all clean the TOP "ASAP" so we can start moving in the right direction!

    Thank You!

    Ps: Some parts edited by "Plusaf." There are not too many people out there willing to help out. Most people just stay dormant without input. Therefore, my Thanks to you "Plusaf!"

  • My bad, I guess I came out from another board with a loaded literally gun. Since you did not explain yourself from the beginning, I had the thoughts it was one more of these crazy attacks. Hugh! I think I have been dealing with noise issues for too long. It starts to affect my common sense at times. Little patience, I am still editing ok? By the way it was Mr. Al Gore that have the credit for the Topic Tag: "The Culture of Distraction," I just translated that as one of the issues people are having today. I also wrote many topics on the "Culture of Distraction" using different names. Anyone interested, search for the topic tags:

  • Mr. Al Gore,
    Congratulations on winning the Nobel Peace Prize.
    Please, please, please take an appointment like, for example, secretary of the interior when the new cabinet forms next year.
    We need you to help us get our country off our addiction to oil. We can invest in wind power and put solar on our roofs. We can teach people how to take a black enamel pan, put it in a box lined with aluminum foil and let the sun cook their dinner...FREE! No green house gasses with just a simple devise! I live among the foress of the pacific northwest. The giant Simper Viren ancient redwoods tree grow here but that i see disappearing from lumber clear cutting. Those tress are the lungs of the earth...they function on the planet exactly the same purpose as our own lungs. when people live in the big metro areas they don't see it on a regular basis. just in case anyone hasn't heard about it want everyone to know that salmon fishing was banned this year, THAT IS FABULOUS!!!
    But you, Al Gore, can do more in an office like that, not just for this country but for the entire planet...and that is what it is going to take.
    If it is not too late already, is it?
    Blessings to you, AL Gore...what a different world it would be today if things didn't go as they did.
    In love and Peace,
    Cherishing our land sea,
    Cherish Liberty

  • I have really done a great effort to understand Mr Al Gore show, cause I'm not english or american.
    Anyway, the more I listen to him the more I hope that somebody like him could speak in the same way even here in Italy.
    This is a world's problem. Everybody is involved.
    Probably Mr Al Gore is not a "perfect man" but I think it has been a reason to give him the Nobel Peace Prize!

  • @sygys, if you're lucky, his presentation in Italian won't have the overstatements, misleading statements and emotional hype that the ones in English have... :)))))

  • @pluaf, I visited your link but I still don't understand why you say that Mr Al Gore is misleading.
    If the human activity is not the main cause of global warming, what do you suggest, which is the answer to this problem ????
    Let me understand. Thanks.
