Man, when you wear a black mock turtleneck in every public appearance for like 20 years, you start to look out of place in a normal suit.

 

You know he has a turtleneck under that shirt right?

 

 

 

By the way, big congrats to Al Gore for all of the hard work he's done.

He shines up pretty good in a suit. He should, since it cost about 15 billion dollars! No, just kidding. He's been holding onto that bad boy since his Bar Mitzvah!

Bar Mitzvah? Huh? steve's

Bar Mitzvah? Huh? steve's has direct arab blood (biological father was Syrain arab). grew up christian. is now Buddhist unless his switched over.

Actually, this is the last time I saw him in a suit....

He doesn't look well.

He's gaunt, his hair is thinning very fast, his neck looks thin and his suit looks as if its has been thrown over a wireframe.

Even for a vegan he is looking thin.

I think he's ill again.

 

 

jeez!  he's skinny.  Good

jeez!  he's skinny.  Good for him.  You sound like his motha!

Why do people think that

3119

Why do people think that thin (and he doesn't look that thin!) is so unhealthy? Is everyone so used to seeing fat and bloated people that when they see someone that doesn't eat KFC and McNasty every night, they think they are ill? To me, he looks great, especially for his age. I've seen plenty people in their 20's that look older.

Congrats to Al

Congrats to Al Gore?
Puhleeze...do your homework. The earth is not in any imminent danger from mankind. We aren't responsible for global warming anymore than we are responsible for the ice caps melting on Mars. It's cyclical and there is nothing we can do about it.

you are lost

You are absolutely right.

2824

You are absolutely right. The earth is not in any imminent danger from mankind. Mankind is in imminent danger from mankind. The earth will be just fine without us.

You are such an ignorant

2523

You are such an ignorant human beeing, it hurts! Shut up an go to school again please. People like you will bury us. What are you from, an oil company? Philip Morris? George W. Bush? You suck! Really!

There is more evidence that

2427

There is more evidence that shows that carbon dioxide levels rise AS A RESULT OF global warming, not the other way around as Mr. Gore advocates. Yes, the earth is warming. So are temperatures on ALL OTHER PLANETS in our solar system. To deny a common connection and assert coincidence is extremly anti-scientific.

Don't get me wrong: I'm a huge conservationalist and a proud "Light-Wad" when it comes to keeping our energy consumption down. But let's consider all the facts, regardless of what populists and pundits are espousing them. When the founder of the Weather Channel calls manmade global warming a myth (among countless other scientists), it's time to pause and listen to ALL the facts. Not just the progressives or the republicans.

Fair enough? Now go do your homework...

 

The founder of the weather

2923

The founder of the weather channel vs. the 99% of Earth/Environmental Scientists?  Hm....I'm sorry but TV meterologists are probably the worst excuses of "scientists" ever, so really his comments on Global Warming mean absolutely nothing to the REAL scientific community.  Sure, Al Gore wasn't completely right in his movie, he did a lot of connecting the dots, but sometimes connected the wrong dots.  What he did do, and why, I believe he deserves the award, is make the Earth's population aware of the problem.  Unfortnately your friendly, everyday news channels like to blame every really abnormally hot day on Global Warming, which in turn helps the critics poke fun at GW (global warming will make some parts of earth colder, btw).  The problem is bigger and more long term than that but I assure you it is happening.

The best part of the first

2530

The best part of the first posters argument is even if he's wrong, only his great-grand kids will have to deal with it!

Better to be green, and find out later it wasn't us all along, then trash the planet, and realize too late we could have prevented it.

Wow, who needs schooling here. No, I am not 'from' George W. Bush! How does that happen, anyway?
I suck? Shut up? I just love tolerance.

no, the last few pictures

no, the last few pictures shown in public, he has looked this way. sure hope he is ok and is not sick again......who is on the succession list?

Seriously global warming is

2220

Seriously global warming is not caused by man.  The earth has gone  through natural warming and cooling cycles.  If we are taking about keep our air clean I am for that, but global warming isn't something we are causing.  Its like saying that me peeing in the atlantic ocean is going to cause a global water levels to rise. 

Maybe- but it's an

2120

Maybe- but it's an undeniable fact that our atrocious activity is causing the Earth to heat up much more quickly than ever before. The moral of the story is to take better care of our environment- it's not a luxury anymore.

First, it's not a fact. 

2624

First, it's not a fact.  Second, I'm denying it.

The earth has warmed at a faster rate in the past.  And since 2002 has actually been cooling at a faster rate than it was warming previously.

Congrats to Gore for mastering misinformation.  Even scientists who believe in man-made global warming call out Gore for his incorrect facts in his movie, book, and presentations.

If you're going to say

2227

If you're going to say something out of the blue, why don't you give accredited evidence? If the anti-global warming camp is so adamant that global warming is false, then where's all the evidence? Why is it that you guys are silent; not countering the countless scientific research? Are you saying that most of the scientific community is totally incorrect and has been misguided for the past several years? That the hours of research by governmental and non-governmental organisations are false and fabricated?

I just think it is cool that

Since we're in such imminent

3227

Since we're in such imminent danger, then can one of you catatrophists answer me this: "what is 'normal' temperature?"  The normal +/- 2.5 degrees C per century of variation (dT/dt) doesn't alarm you, but a 0.6 degree C rise in the 20th century does?  Do I have that right?  Which then begs the follow-on question of "who's in charge of setting the thermostat?"  Someone who lives in Siberia, or someone who lives in Death Valley?  The massive anomalies in the land measuring stations over the last half century (aka "urban sprawl," shown at http://surfacestations.org/odd_sites.htm) don't make you question the basic measurements?  And no, I don't work for the oil companies.  But I did once get a 3 cent per gallon discount at an Exxon station for paying cash.  Does that mean I'm on their payroll?

If Algore is so damned smart, how come he won't debate anyone in any sort of a public forum?  He sure looks good up on a stage, debating himself, doesn't he?  He runs from any confrontation, like the mindless sissy that he really is.  Puke....

where in the world did you

2221

where in the world did you hear that the temperature changes by 2.5C every century? it's nowhere near that...yes, the earths temperature varies cyclically - but the natural cycle's amplitude is NOTHING like what has happened in the past 50-100 years, as C02 and other greenhouse gases have accumulated...

this gives some idea of the scale of temperature variation

I'd like to speak with the

2623

I'd like to speak with the guy who took those measurements in the sixth century. He's what, around 1500 years old now?

The anti-global warming

2623

The anti-global warming party is concerned about the "economy" but again, this is hypocrisy. A recent research by the CSIRO found that if the temperature were to increase by around 1~2C, the whole Great Barrier Reef would be dead. Now think about it- with the reef gone, there would be a substantial decrease in the number of tourists going to see the earth's largest reef ecosystem. Where would that place the local economy? In ruins. Multiply this by countless of other tourist attractions around the world and you have a financial nightmare.

Stop fighting- it's about protecting our natural environment for the good of all people.

Brilliant response.

Except for...  maybe...  POLITICIANS

and...  actors

honestly, these people know absolutely nothing about science (execpt for the fiction kind)

 

Hahahaha, around and around

2818

Hahahaha, around and around it goes. 

The sky is falling. No it's not. Yes it is. No it is not. Yes it is - and you are an arrogant idiot because you believe that.  Well you are just a stooge of the Big XYZ Companies.  Na na na na na.  

Whether global warming is man-made or not, you have to admit Al Gore is a big turd and a hypocrite.  His carbon footprint is bigger than some small 3rd world countries.   I think it is a disgrace he is on the board of Apple.
