I think it is great tribute that Al Gore was inspired by Event Emissary's Eco-friendly gala. Maybe this will spur other inaugural balls to follow suit.

The likes of Al Gore is what scares me the most about Obama's administration. The hyper-far left nut cases just won't go away. Obama, you want a middle ground appeal? Beware.

It appears Al hasn't been keeping up with the news, Gore's Global Warming scam is over..he will go down in History as another fear mongering con-artist that racked in millions selling credits from his own propaganda films and fraud laden scientific reports.

Uh, that'd be "green as in moldy green" as that's what's been growing between the ears of Gaseous Al Gore all these years. Overthrow Al. Overthrow OhBummer. And have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! ~:<)

Gore and two dozen environmental groups inviting all their rich "green" contributors from around the world. One has to wonder when one adds up Gore's and all the rich folk's private jets, hotels, etc., what the carbon footprint will be? I know, I know. It's all how they "feel" about the environment and their good intentions.

Be sure to send some green to Al and Obama. Being green has lots of expenses.

The Global Warming hype is a way to advance the cause of collectivism. First they take what is a natural event (Global warming/cooling cycles) and claim that it's being caused by mankind (anthropomorphic) Then they foment hysteria by over-blowing the conclusions. For example the summary from the UN(not the full report, it has data that attacks the man caused premise) a much anticipated compendium on climate change. Under the U.N. Panel on Climate Change’s emission scenario for greenhouse gases, a rise in sea level of between 8 & 17 in is predicted by 2100. Gore’s film exaggerates the rise by about 2,000 percent. Yikes! Even 17in is likely to be high, because it assumes that the con. of methane, an important greenhouse gas, is growing rapidly. Atmospheric methane concentration hasn't changed appreciably for seven years, and Nobel Laureate Sherwood Rowland recently pronounced the IPCC’s methane emissions scenarios as “quite unlikely.” Here's some recent inconvenient data. According to satellite data published in Science in November 2005, Greenland was losing about 25 cubic miles of ice per year. Dividing that by 630,000 yields the annual percentage of ice loss, which, when multiplied by 100, shows that Greenland was shedding ice at 0.4 percent per century. and hot off the press In early Feb. Science published another paper showing that the recent acceleration of Greenland’s ice loss from its huge glaciers has suddenly reversed. Nowhere in the traditionally refereed scientific literature do we find any support for Gore’s hypothesis. Instead, there’s an unrefereed editorial by NASA climate firebrand James E. Hansen, in the journal Climate Change — edited by Steven Schneider, of Stanford University, who said in 1989 that scientists had to choose “the right balance between being effective and honest” about global warming (Agenda driven Science)— and a paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that was only reviewed by one person, chosen by the author, again Dr. Hansen. See a pattern here? on Drudge Report we are given this article *Climate Panel Recommends Global Temperature Ceiling, Carbon Tax* http://www.voanews.com/english/2007-02-2... They want to tax and control our economy. Put us under the control of a U.N. that is both corrupt and Collectivist. This report was crafted by 18 scientists requested by the same corrupt UN that stands to benefit from it's implementation and the lead researcher of the report is a John Holdren of Harvard University He has a decades long history of Agenda driven policy initiatives http://ksgfaculty.harvard.edu/John_Holdr... and is not even a climate expert. Holdren, however, says even these measure will achieve very little unless they are accompanied by a global tax on greenhouse gas emissions. A lock-box mindset that ignores promising research on Iron-Catalyzed Plankton Restoration. Make no mistake the purveyors of Anthropormorphic Climate Change wish to sequester more than just carbon...

The only thing Gore's feel good junk science convention will convey to the world is that America is sappy enough and willing enough to be trampled by China, Korea, Iran and Russia like an untrained Wal-Mart greeter on sale day.
