BpnJ,

You have elevated yourself from simple rank-and-file of
'Global Warming' to the rank of 'Full of Hot Air' ! ::-}}

Your Al Gore reference is smoke and mirrors, and completely
irrelevant. *The settled science part are your words, not mine, and
completely innaccurate.

* *Actually, 'The science is settled' is a quote of Algore. *He said
it at the Oscars, he's said it on Charlie Rose.

As I said before, *Al Gore is irrelevant to the actual issue*. He is
only a messenger. To blithely discredit 150 years of long and
thoughtful research by physicists, meterologists, climatologists,
oceanographers, mathematicians and astronomers, peer review after peer
review of every single hypothesis vetted to the nth degree, and a
science which freely admits that it still must answer some of the more
intractable questions to provide a complete picture - as every true
science does, every time - because you don't like the messenger - is
just ugly, unscientific politics. To do it because of greedy,
narcissistic motives is reprehensible and immoral.

Science has given us EVERY good thing we have beyond basic food, water
and land. We love our PCs and radios and TVs and transportation and
modern medicine and thank science for it, and rightfully so. However,
science is not always the bearer of benign or conveniently profitable
news. Sometimes it brings us bad news, sometimes news that even
challenges the existing power structure. Galileo and Darwin
challenged the church (and some willful people, to this day, still
disagree with both of these guys) - but their basic science is sound,
as is all true science, and has eventually won the day. Like the
science of Galileo and Darwin, the science of human-induced climate
change challenges the existing power structrure - nowadays,
concentrated wealth like the Koch Brothers and big oil/coal - and
consequently their propaganda machines are working in overtime to
preserve their power. As a result, Al Gore is bad and = climate
change science, and no-nothing reporters at Faux and Drudge are the
experts after spending zero years in actual research.

History repeats itself, and we have fallen into the same old trap of
ignorance and rebellion against inconvenience at the behest of the
powerful. The difference, this time, is that the fate of many forms
of life on the planet, as well as the security and well-being of
billions of people, hang in the balance.

Ignore Al Gore if you don't like him. He's just a politician. But
the science was, and is, conducted as it should be, and like all true
science that takes time and effort, is gradually yielding the correct
answer. We ridicule and ignore it at our own peril.
