Ok lets review...Al Gore is like a confused scientist...Dick Cheney and John Ashcroft are like Nazis...Sarah Palin IS a slutty wolf-killing stewardess [sic]...Obama is like a Red bastard freedom hating Commie....and Hummers with loggers glued to them ARE environmentally friendly

Who said this thread was dead?!

Now dirt is causing global warming needing to be taxxed...

So...besides being extremely boring (possible conspiracy by the religious right to bore science out of the classroom...my god Al is a downer to listen to!) the majority of what he was saying was about right, though it could have been conveyed completely in 2 minutes...but the soil stuff made me wonder?....

I would like to see/hear the rest of the speech, as it appears as though someone with an agenda, deliberately cut the video in mid sentence/thought to be deceptive.

So I was thinking...where in the world was he going with this????

So lets try to figure it out: Carbon in soil....well yes this is true...when we compost, the dead brown stuff is the carbon addition to the soil, and the green stuff is the Nitrogen addition (though it also has lots of carbon!)...But we are really only concerned with ATMOSPHERIC carbon....so many who understand the topic, but have not done any research beyond Fox News, and possibly AM talk radio and undoubtedly the good Book...Would say AAAAHA! Gothcha!.....

But if you could stand to go back and listen to what Al said...over several pauses (his speech style which is also often used to deceive out of context)...What he said was it took 10 years to connect atmospheric levels of CO2 to the deforestation of the rainforests...this is now elementary school stuff...

But he Said Carbon in the soil!!!!....what the context was, I believe, was linking Deforestation to exposed soils, which over time release carbon (yes VERY little, but..), where if the dirt was forested...it would actually be removing carbon from the atmosphere..exchanging it for pure oxygen and sequestering the carbon in the tissues of the long lived trees...

We need these forests...much more than we need the shitty cattle and Monsanto's round-up ready soybeans and the poisons that come with them....the deforested soils are surprisingly shallow plus...what the hell will grow on this after spraying with Round-up....nothin' but weeds an' Monsanto seeds!...previously self-sufficient farmers being turned into slaves all over the world

I like the part in the movie where he conveniently reverses CO2 and temperature data on the 1000 year chart from ice-core samples. I guess the fact that chart has been used as a standard in numerous textbooks on climatology for decades and has CLEARLY shown that temperature increases ALWAYS precede CO2 increases, didn't fit the plan for him to personally make over 100 million dollars since this little scheme was dreamed up. So they just reversed the data.

Hey anybody remember good 'ol Fat Al's campaign against the timber industry in Oregon that crushed the industry, bankrupted thousands of hard working Americans and moved the bulk of the industry to Canada while raising the price we pay for lumber dramatically. Yes, remember the Spotted Owl? The poor little spotted owl, so misunderstood and such a victim of the cruel timber industry. Oh, wait. They got it wrong? It wasn't the logging industry that was causing the little guy's hardship?

You did see the MASSIVE media reporting on how they got it wrong? Oh you didnt, well that's because it was barely reported on. Turns out it was another OWL that was causing the problem for the spotted owl. Turns out it was just natural selection. OOOPSY. Any apologies to the families whose lives were destroyed by this farce? Of course not. Fuck you very much, it was NEVER about the spotted owl. Case in point, did they repeal the restrictions and regulations that were based on this incorrect information? Of course they didn't.

The ECO-LOONS just wanted the logging to stop in the USA, they have no problem with it moving somewhere else, just so long as WE aren't doing it. Sounds familiar doesn't it, facts be damned, screw drilling for oil, so what if other countries are going to horizontally drill the exact same oil from a little further out and sell it back to us...just so long as WE aren't doing it.

MORONS....BAAAAA-BAAAAA

This is stupid. Al Gore is a manipulative, big government/corporate fuck. Man made global warming is a myth. Geothermal and solar processes are WAY more energetic and influential than man.

the dude who created the weather channel is sueing gores ass because he used some of his words to make it sound like global warming was a threat and really, really bad

It's a great movie. To deny global warming, is to deny science.
