Gore's
recent comments. (JAN 2012).
“It should be in the presidential campaign,” Gore said. “And it is not
at present. Not a single question was asked about climate in any of the
numerous, multitudinous debates that these candidates have had. And yet
in the year 2011, the United States of America had more than 12
climate-related disasters that cost over a billion dollars. The state of
Texas has had the worst drought in its history. It is climate-related.
Out of 254 counties, 252 are on fire. . We have record melting of the volume of ice in the Arctic
Ocean, dramatically powerful storms, in Pakistan, Australia, the
Northeast. Record flooding in the Mississippi and the Missouri Rivers,
and the list goes on. And it’s consistent with what the scientific
community has been warning us.”
Well, let's see what's wrong with the above 'facts' as presented by Mr. Gore.
Scientific warnings often do
not translate into reality. Nature is funny that way.
"The state of
Texas has had the worst drought in its history"
Nope.
1934 and 1956 were worse. Research before you speak.
"2010 was the hottest year ever
recorded".
Nope. Al, you are losing credibility.
"We have record melting of the volume of ice in the Arctic
Ocean".
Nope.
Nope. And
nope. Not 2011 anyway.
"dramatically powerful storms, in
Pakistan,
Australia, the
Northeast". Storms of the past can be found on the internet. Heard of it, AL?
"Record flooding in the Mississippi and the Missouri Rivers". Happened
before. And
before. Seems to happen along
these rivers quite a lot. Guess the climate never stops changing.
Show Al Gore the door. Exit left, AL.
