Oscar Gore

February 26, 2007 @ 07:12

I'm embarrassed to say it but it wasn't until yesterday that I finally saw Al Gore's Oscar winning documentary An Inconvenient Truth. It's fabulous, and way beyond anything I can argue with except for one thing.

I know Global Warming is a problem, and I know the issue has to be dealt with, but I maintain Kyoto is not the way to do it. Gore seems to think it is.

Last Sunday Lorrie Goldstein of the Sun wrote an article that pretty well sums up how I feel.

Freddie, I agree Kyoto is not the way to go but I do think we need a global agreement otherwise you will have countries not participating. This is a global problem that needs everyones support.

hey Freddie!
Site looks great--Congrats!

As you know, I, too, am from Buffalo, but (as you also know) am a proud Global Warming Agnostic.

Too much conflicting evidence and questionable "science". Not to mention political maneuvering and bluster.

Kyoto is a crock, though I'd happy if we could reduce emissions in a sound, economic manner--just makes for better breathing, ya know?

But, Global warming? Nah.

Loving you,
JON

You know if you really look at and understand the science of it , it does make sense and there really is not a lot of conflicting science. The conflicting science I think comes into play when people start talking about what to do about it. There is no doubt that the Earth is warming. IF you look at the chart that Al Gore presents and is on every major Global Warming Web site that presents CO2 levels in the atmosphere it is far above any level that in any other point in history. IF you look at levels throughout history there is a positive correlation between CO2 levels and warming. As CO2 goes up so does worldwide temperature.
Watch the video for the rest. HE does do a wonderful job at showing the evidence for it. And it is completely political free.
