I almost didn't put that last sentence in because I figured someone would only quote it without addressing the other things I said. I should have gone with instinct.

TOO LATE!...
Hypocrite, yes. Thief, maybe, maybe not. Heart... well... he actually might believe the stuff he has created. He might even believe he created the Internet ^^/
With the power and status he holds, he is doing more harm than good with the sky is falling notion. Even as you are on board with notion that Global Warming/ Climate change is a natural process can see that Gore is simply creating panic and waist where it does not need to be.
The thing is he refuses to debate the issue. Time and time again, refuses to debate the issue and just takes the stand on, its not theory, its been decided, no debate.
That is not good intentions IF he is unwilling to have an open mind. There is room for debate, always, moreso now than ever.
No but the your argument is fair in the rest of your post before mentioning Gore...
I can accept humanity affecting the amount of pollution but not to the extent of climate change or the quoted "EMERGENCY" Gore and the likes are creating. The earth has proven to have take quite a beaten by man through history and the earth has also given quite a beaten.
It will be great when one day we can all telecommute for those jobs that allow it. That is pollution and energy change I can really go for. The technology is here now.
In reality though, even if the job is capable of this, this will never happen.
All big cities of the world have a while to go before getting away from the smog and pollution of today. I don't remember Tokyo's air being that clean either.
