Evil people up to no good.

I'm BATMAN! And i call shenanigans.

How would Al Goresky recognize a "smart " anything???

These people are more likely to have escaped from the facility than to have acquired all these lies from science. All you have to do is listen to his litany of lies disguised as facts !!

CO2 is not a poison, it's necessary for photosynthesis and it's been warmer 900 years ago, long before the industrial revolution. Secondly, NASA recordedd Global Warming on all planets and moon in our Solar system. You can find those newsarticles yourself.

So unless green little men have created massive industries on those planets and moons, Gmandmade created Global Warming is bull.

Do your research this is about political power and financial gain. 9:48 on the video claims smart cars will put electricity back into the grid when they are not being used. This would mean they would be drained. Think about it. Your battery is either charged or drained. This propaganda is full of holes.

[mmcdonald2k]

Al Gore is getting rich from carbon trading. Do your homework.

I agree glaciers are melting. However, their are power structures (not electric power) being put in politically all over the world to control the world. Enslavement plain and simple.

[mmcdonald2k]

Whoa...Did I just hear Al Gore say the smart cars will feed electricity back into the power grid for use by others at around 9:54 in this clip? How is that possible. Wouldn't that mean your cars batteries would be drained? This is scientifically impossible.

The treaty to be signed in December in Copenhagen is about ending the United States sovereignty and making slaves of all of us.

To Al Gore...At what point did you sell your soul to the devil and for how much?

Hi MRMILO57; What do u mean by "I will fight for my freedom is choose! "

[MRMILO57]

Just letting you people know.....an ETS (emissions trading scheme) was reject in the Australian federal parliament today!

And the coal industry is expanding in this country on a level never seen before.

The Greenwashing isn't working, I will never go green. I will fight for my freedom is choose!
