Gore: 'It Is Time For Civil Disobedience'

Vice President Al Gore, speaking at the Clinton Global Initiative: "If you're a young person, looking at the future of this planet and looking at what is being done right now and not done, I believe we've reached the stage where it is time for civil disobedience to prevent the construction of new coal plants that do not have carbon capture and sequestration."

I'd like to see Gore asked about his pollution creating zinc mine that he owns. He was and may still be a major shareholder in Occidental Petroleum Corp. Maybe we should head to his zinc mine and engage in civil disobedience.

why don't you lead this civil disobedience al? are you prepared to give up your elite status? are you ready to accept a more humble lifestyle?

perhaps the general public will follow if you get arrested for blocking an entrance to a mine.

Mars has warmed 0.5c in the last 40 years.

Pluto has also warmed 1.8c in the last 30 years, even though it is moving away from the Sun in its orbital path now.

Gore and all the other alarmists are idiots.

Gore is a low, low dog.

He is so angry that his new companies are not making him the billions that he thinks thay should be by now.

Its all because the people are too stupid to see his truth, that we should all be demanding more carbon taxes.

Dont want to hear it Al. Go somewhere else and whine.

[daveh69]

Al baby is just mad, very little people is buying his lies. He isn't making the money he was hoping to. Sorry Al, there aren't enough sheep around

@SupergirlFlyer isn't it clear that our planet is so polluted martians had to come take some of our CO2 emmisions and dump it on Mars .... and O MY Mars's atmosphere is 95% C02!!!! Mars is almost 100% it can't fit anymore if WE DONT STOP CO2 EARTH WILL LOOK JUST LIKE MARS IN 6 months!

AAA GLOBAL WARMING GIME YOUR MONEY OR WE WILL RUN OUT OF AIR.

ha..people are so gullible.... they will believe anything... cause you know ... we have to do it for "the children" don't you love the "children"....

'Ice caps gone in 5 years' you said Mr. Gore. 5 years ago, total lies. I'm sick to death of this global warming scam. Mars is also warming, how did we do that? This is the Sun's usual erratic behaviour. 93 million miles away it gives us summer & winter with only around 4,000 miles difference in distance with the Earth's tilt. This is & has 'always' been a tax con & a career & funding gravy train for middle age jobless politicians & false scientists. The game is up, fewer people believe everyday.

[deletethefed]

cap and trade is a scam, like the old joke about taxing the air we breathe, well its no longer a joke cap and trade is just a pc name for carbon tax

[Endarkenedtheone]

He is a terrorist

[gunzaspawn]

you should probably come up with a coherent definition of terrorism, you know, that has something to do with terror... psychological warfare... violence... any of those things... "violating property rights... in other words terrorism" god, the definition of terror has been spread so thin as to mean nothing and include everyone, our kids will come home from school with detentions for "tardiness/terrorism"
