Gore said the Civil Rights movement was fueled by youth questioning their parents about legal discrimination, and he drew a link to climate change.
“When they could not answer that moral question coming straight from the conscience of young people, that is when the laws began to change,” Gore said. “You need to ask, ‘tell me again why its al right to put 90 million tons of global warming pollution into the atmosphere every 24 hours, 20 percent of it will still be there in 20,000 years.‘”
“You need to ask that question and other related questions. Don’t they see the evidence, don’t they hear what the scientists are saying, do they actually believe this lying from the large carbon polluters, that the scientists are making this up?” Gore added.
He went on the offensive against climate change deniers, citing a litany of extreme weather events – ranging from floods in Pakistan to droughts in the U.S. southwest – and noted that nine of the 10 hottest years on record have occurred in the last 12 years.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Primitive societies would blame weather catastrophes on angry Gods. Even they were smart enough not to blame these catastrophes on a trace gas which, is an essential part of life.
And Gore is super cereal too…….
There’s a lot of similarity to Pagan worship. We see guilt over consumption, a desire to sacrifice (with carbon indulgences) to an angry Gaia who produces earthquakes and violent weather to punish man for his insensitivity. Moral proclamations and self righteousness from the Pius driving crowd.
I hear they added a couple extra squirrels to the Pius, maybe because you were passing them on your bike, Steve.
Disagree about the guilt thing. Guilt is a specifically Christian thing; I don’t think other religions have it as a central part of their belief. Yes, for sure, the gods are displeased and must be appeased when a volcanoe erupts, but otherwise, party on!
I do not know where the 20,000 thousand year figure came from or what brand of controlled substance was to to produce it but it is wrong because with natural weather patterns droughts, floods and many other types of extreme weather have been happening since weather began and will continue until the planet ceases to have weather / atmosphere. The moon having no atmosphere has no weather. So brother Al and company are talking out of their A##s!
It is time for the youth to wake up and realize they are being suckered by Con Artists!
I forgot to mention the Racist Deniers are those who want to restrict the developing countries from obtaining affordable food and energy such as Brother Gore!
The outcome of his agenda is to force people back to lifestyles lived in the Dark Ages!
Question, why does a man who has constantly preaches about the dangers of AGW, specifically melting ice-caps causing enormous and rapid rises in sea levels, why does this man – then invest in and buy beach front property?
There are some notable or should I say infamous clowns in politics, many are not dangerous and never rise to a position where they could really cause a catastrophe [thank God].
After the great fornicator, the US very nearly got the great fabricator in the shape of Al Gore.
Losing the presidential election however, didn’t stop this ambitious BS merchant unfortunately. Knowingly and having a snake-oil quack’s nose….. he climbed aboard the AGW bandwagon and eventually, made a fraudulent fortune out of carbon trading, this guy has no scruples or conscience.
After his God awful film some shill gave him a Nobel peace prize[!], he’s been riding the gravy train ever since.
At any and every opportunity, this miserable excuse of
a failed law studentpolitician uses the chance to peddle his filth, outrageous AGW lies, disaster scenarios and hyperbole, not because he wants to save the world but because he wants to fill his bank account – what altruism?!Gore knows less about AGW than he does about turning a light switch to the off position in one of his many mansions and don’t forget – the jet air miles either.
Statements like the above article, highlight his nit-witted grasp of the subject [the science of AGW].
Because, basically the joker doesn’t know what the ferkin hell he is talking about – but like all arrogant men, that has never stopped him!
One thing though, despite all the offers of a televised and open forum debate with realists he always declines, why is this – if he fervently believes his own cant – why the hell not?
Charlatan, mountebank, fraud – call him all of these but know this, he is yesterday’s man and news, annoyingly he’s already made his fortune but, he won’t die a fulfilled and happy man.
Edward:
I see a lot of respect for Brother Al in your comments! 😉 Why not tell us what you really think about him?
Because Steve is trying to run a family blog here!
The mark of a good liar is to believe your own lies. This makes you so much more convincing and able to withstand attacks of reality.
Oh the irony. The poor dark skinned people in this country and all over the world will be the most severely impacted by higher costs for food and fuel brought on by climate change regulation. The spark that lit the Arab uprising is believed to be a doubling of the cost of grains yet our EPA want to divert even more of the food crop to fuel.
The modern version of scorched earth policy.
Al Gore seems to be saying that as a child he was a dud or a racist for not asking the obvious question that youngsters aked in the 60s. O wait he might have asked that, wonder what his racist senator father told him.
Many forget that his dear ole dad was part of the filibuster attempting to thwart the civil rights act.
And became the head of a coal company after he left government. Brother Al grew up and lived a lifestyle funded by Mining.
And he won’t open his books to public requests for audit.
Does Al Gore have a moral base that matters to him??
It is truly depressing to see what kind of weak candidates we have for President, very few worth respect let alone admiration. All with big holes in their moral/mental fiber.
Most of these recent presidents will go down along with the 19th Century midgets like Pierce, Filmore and Buchanan. 100 years from now, no one will know they existed.
I learned a new word the other day, algorean.
In context: Johnny that story is completely algorean.
Algorean in Thesaurus:

Part of Speech: noun
Definition: nonsense
Synonyms: BS, absurdity, balderdash, baloney, bull*, bunk, debris, drivel*, foolishness, hokum, hooey, horsefeathers, poppycock, refuse, ridiculousness, rot, rubbish, trash, twaddle
“You cannot negotiate with the laws of physics,” Gore said.
You have to admire the guy for giving it a real good try though.
No Mr. Gore I don’t see your alleged evidence as conclusive at all; for CO2 is an essential plant and planet food, plants love the stuff growing larger and faster; want evidence? Visit a commercial greenhouse where they pump it up ~2.5 to 3.5 times the amount in the atmosphere because plants love it and so do we humans!
Also, it’s a distortion at best and a lie at worse to say that “nine of the 10 hottest years on record have occurred in the last 12 years” as the Greenland Ice Core Data shows that 9,100 of the last 10,500 years have been about 2c warmer than any in the last 100 years. If you’re taking the long view, 20,000 years, you must look at the long view the other way before you jump to conclusions and panic sets into your brain as it so clearly has.
Oh, but wait Mr. Gore you are a politician and lying comes naturally to that class of people. In fact it extraordinarily rare to find a politician who doesn’t lie and distort the facts while doing their job.
So we get back to the central notion Mr. Gore and the way we solve these questions in science is to, well you know, ask for the evidence and examine and cross examine it openly. To further the process Mr. Gore please provide the OPENLY VERIFIABLE EVIDENCE that for your alleged catastrophic AGW hypothesis and your specific CO2 Climate Doomsday scenarios. Thanks, once you’ve provided the alleged evidence that has you freaking out of your mind we’ll be able to examine it in detail and let you know the results.
In the meantime for your own quality of mental health, don’t panic as the doomsday soothsayers keep getting it wrong. Oh right you’re one of those soothsayers. Ah now your problem is evident… you believe the likes of Hansen… the Mannipulator… and other doomsayers… Well know that the error range is larger than their claimed doom.
Anyway an emotional appeal will only work on your zombie climate cult followers. I’m immune to it, as I require openly verifiable (or refutable) evidence in a scientific form.
Thanks.
Al Gore is an idiot.
He stopped being rational about 1987.When he turned into a leftist beast.
Do I believe in Divine intervention?
After watching Al Gore’s continuing decade of rants, screeches, and hot air, I do now believe that God personally resolved the Election 0f 2000, so that America would be saved from being governed by this insane man.
lol, just look at the weather that follows him and the IPCC meetings. Al has an effect named after him!
Al Gore is off his meds again.
Maybe he needs a good “whole body massage”; it always works for me.
I have continuously described Al Gore to people as an eco Elmer Gantry; unfortunately few know what I am talking about.
http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi862455065/
A very good movie about hucksterism
I often make that comparison, but Elmer Gantry played by Burt Lancaster in the film ultimately had a heart of gold. I can’t say that for that S.O.B, AlGore.
In Australia, it is the Greens who are racist. This is the party of Gore followers here. They were the ones instrumental in the seizing of native lands in Queensland to stop traditional owners using the land. They were the ones trying to stop development in WA on native lands – preventing traditional owners from getting high paid jobs. And it is there party that wants an embargo on Israel in NSW.
Al Gore better be very careful pulling the racist card, it might come back to bite him.
“90 million tons of global warming pollution into the atmosphere every 24 hours, 20 percent of it will still be there in 20,000 years.‘”
The IPCC fabricated the half-life of CO2 in the atmosphere at 200 years. No scientific basis.
NASA, not to be outdone, made up a half-life of 1000 years. No scientific basis.
Gore has it at about 8,600 years. He’s a con-artist.
What is this? A game of whose is longer?
The real half-life is 3-12 years, with an average of 5.4 years, according to real published research, not alarmists’ fantasies. This explains why we see the CO2 at Mauna Loa showing significant seasonal changes in CO2 ppm. It wold not do this, if there was not a relatively short half-life involved.
Gore said. “You need to ask, ‘tell me again why its alright to put 90 million tons of global warming pollution into the atmosphere every 24 hours, 20 percent of it will still be there in 20,000 years.‘”
Well, as usual, Al Gore is quite wrong about the 20,000 years bit and I refer to an October 2010 article titled: ‘Mathematical Errors Overestimate Persistence of CO2 in Atmosphere’
http://www.suite101.com/content/royal-society-humiliated-by-global-warming-basic-math-error-a296746
The article is about how the Royal Society (RS), London, made errors in mathematical calculations over the duration of carbon dioxide (CO2) persistence in Earth’s atmosphere. The Royal Society advises the British government on matters concerning climate change.
An error in their own basic calculations led the RS to falsely find that CO2 would stay in the atmosphere for thousands of years rather than a dozen or so years as peer-reviewed studies show.
German born chemist, Dr Klaus L. E. Kaiser published evidence reporting the half-life of CO2 in the atmosphere to be “between 5 and 10 years.” The chemist calculated that with a half-life of 5 years means that more than 98% of a substance will disappear in a time span of 30 years.
And to prove his pint, Dr Klaus L. E. Kaiser posed the question that if CO2 were to stay in the atmosphere for millennia, then why has its level in the atmosphere not doubled in the last 15 years, or gone up tenfold-plus over the last hundred years?
So who should one believe? Al Gore’s and his 20,000 years claim, or Dr Kaiser’s and his calculation of 30 years?
I think Al is full of bullshit!
Above ground nuclear testing left a signature isotope that was measured to determine the CO2 life in the atmosphere. I do not remember the exact figures but even 100 years is magnitudes high. I think the 30 year is also on the high side because of the yearly variation measured compared to the estimated extent of the carbon cycle!
If we’re re-introducing 90 million tons of CO2 into the atmosphere every day then nature is putting 2250 tons of CO2 into the atmospehere every day so who cares?
