Well I don't suppose I need to ask what you think of
Al Gore. I'm curious as to what statistics his book uses, though, and exactly how he makes his argument in this film.
I lean more towards the alarmis state of mind myself, but it is interesting to hear soem of these arguments people are making. What's frustrating is that everyone seems to be acknowledging the problem to one degree or another, but to the best of my knowledge no efforts are being made to research alternatives. Alternative fuels, yes, but not alternative combustion engines, for instance. Funding is being spent on reduction instead of on ideas for prevention/human accommodation.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
