Former Vice President Al Gore references computer modeling to suggest that the north polar ice cap may lose virtually all of its ice within the next seven years. "Some of the models suggest that there is a 75 percent chance that the entire north polar ice cap, during some of the summer months, could be completely ice-free within the next five to seven years," says Gore.

Albert Arnold "Al" Gore, Jr. was the forty-fifth Vice President of the United States, serving from 1993 to 2001 under President Bill Clinton. Before that, Vice President Gore served in the U. S. House of Representatives (1977-85) and the U. S. Senate (1985-93), representing Tennessee. A prominent environmental activist, he shares the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change "for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change."

Gore was the Democratic nominee for president in the 2000 election in which he won the popular vote by a plurality. A legal controversy over the Florida election recount, ultimately settled in favor of George W. Bush by the Supreme Court, made the election one of the most controversial in American history.

Today, Gore is chairman of the American television channel Current TV, chairman of Generation Investment Management, a director on the board of Apple Inc., an unofficial adviser to Google's senior management, and chairman of the Alliance for Climate Protection. He recently joined venture capital firm, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, to head that firm's climate change solutions group.

Al Gore as so much money in CO2 trading and green technology that it not in his interest to find we do not have global warming. Member, Al Gore in the politician, when did they every tell the truth?

[MrOllyK]

We don't need the Arctic ice, nor do polar bears or seals. You see these animals happily exist on land globally. If the Arctic melted, it wouldn't increase our sea levels anyway.

Besides, it's not melting anyway. Check out the u r l Thisawareness posted.

This guy should rot in jail for fraud.

The elite 1% have a bet that they can fool the sheeple into paying a tax on the air that we breath. Carbon dioxide is the air that we exhale. We breathe in oxygen and exhale CO2. Plants on the other hand, breathe in CO2 and exhale oxygen. Its called the circle of life.

I live on the Gulf of Mexico, I am a fisherman, I watch the tides, water temperature, winds and water levels constantly. There has been absolutely NO rise in ocean levels in the last 40 years. There is 18 feet of snow in Nome AK

Follow the money. Al Gore got rich on this scam

[johnnyf19]

Meanwhile in 2012: Alaska is ravaged by the largest snowstorm in years.

Algore is the only one full of hot air.

The steaming pile of bullshit this guy pukes out could heat the entire north east.

Al Whore. Check out the "Great global warming swindle" BBC.

[vengencefrom1979]

one could laugh at the folly of the 'right-wing' making this a carbon tax credit issue. most of the rich right wingers live along the shore to start with. it is quite likely that antarctica will begin to defrost as fast as greenland has and with it the rich living along the shorline will see their homes washed away. sad fact is though, global warming is a trigger for an ice age. antarctica sits on every tectonic plate in the world, when it goes, the earths crust will crack releasing SO2.

COP15 is a 'member's only club' for the wealthiest high-society elites; corrupt globalists who pull the strings, the very bankster scum guilty of the majority of heinous crimes against nature and humanity.

When there is nothing left for these criminals to rape and pillage, profits alone shall not stave off hunger.

The day of reckoning is at hand, decadence and evil deeds against humanity shall not go unpunished! Occupy Copenhagen NOW!

Remove these elitist liars from the seat of global power NOW!

[dicamark]

All gore says the polar caps are going to melt next year, and he says that every year :))))

[vllmer]

100% chance all the taxes, etc. given to manipulative people to stop global warming will be diverted, scammed, and wasted. And as people's lives become miserable, perhaps even tenuous from the financial chaos the AGW geniuses will just say aw @#$%&!!! there's too many people and fly away to mansions in their corporate jets.
