Get it? Higher temperatures all over the planet can cause "all sorts of havoc," Gore said, continuing from the Page column. It can range from dry spells, to more frigid winters, to increasingly violent storms, flooding, and loss of endangered species.There is always moisture in the air. In fact, water vapor or moisture is the single largest cause of global warming, such as it is, not CO2. Look it up. So Al tells us: if it's warmer, it's global warming, and if it's colder and snowy, it's also global warming...?? As the Church Lady would say: Isn't that Convenient...??

Just place yourself in prizewinner Al Gore's shoes: as a Democrat presidential candidate, you already know that borrowing leads to fiscal security, and spending leads to increased wealth. It is not much of a stretch to believe that falling temperatures mean it is getting warmer is it?
In 1491 the scientific consensus was that the world was flat. All the peers agreed. They were simply wrong.
The Global warmers said we would be getting LESS snowfall. This was right out of Gores own mouth a few years ago. Of the 24 models for global warming only a couple of years ago, our current weather does not fit any of them. Global warming is a hoax and Gore should be in prison for fraud.

We do something and it was needed and it helps.3. We do nothing and we didn't need to everything is ok.4We do nothing and we needed to,we have a disaster.

February 04 2011 at 7:35 PM Report abuse Permalink +3 rate up rate down ReplyIf we do everything that Gore et al want us to, it will affect global temps very minimally, like 0.1 degree per century. Water vapor causes more warming than CO2 because it holds the sun's radiation better than anything else. Are there environmentalist plans to curb water vapor?? I don't think so.
February 08 2011 at 6:33 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyFrom a statistical standpoint, the recent severe snowstorms don't mean anything with regard to the global warming debate, one way or the other. The real question is if the Earth is warming, is it due to anything Mankind is doing? If it is due to man, this would be the first time man was responsible for the Earth warming. One might guess that a warming Earth is warming for the same reason(s) it has warmed many times in the past. But if man is responsible, what is the mechanism? There has been no increase in the absorbtion of solar energy in the atmosphere. So an enhanced Greenhouse Effect (i.e. increased hydrcarbons in the air), isn't the culprit. The Earth will cool and the Earth will warm regardless of what people do. Why does anyone believe that we are now at Earth's "correct" temperature and that we must somehow do whatever we can to keep the Earth from warming (or cooling)?

February 03 2011 at 9:09 PM Report abuse Permalink -5 rate up rate down ReplyWhat caused all of the inter glacial warming periods before humankind? There were many such periods and they all happened sans mankind. Most climatologists believe that we are in a warming trend curently. Good luck getting them to agree on the cause. But of course Al Gore knows. Right. He is too influenced by his MANY STOCK holdings in the alternative energy field. You have been duped my friend.

February 03 2011 at 7:23 PM Report abuse Permalink +2 rate up rate down ReplyI would like to hear from someone who is not making money on global warming!Maybe even someone who is apolitical.
February 03 2011 at 5:34 PM Report abuse Permalink +15 rate up rate down ReplyFrom the article. "Scientists have warned for the last 20 years or so that global warming could bring more snow".
February 03 2011 at 6:16 PM Report abuse Permalink -5 rate up rate down ReplySome one that is apolitical? Is that an even realistic desire?
February 03 2011 at 6:49 PM Report abuse Permalink +1 rate up rate down ReplyAl, if you look at the averages over past decades, you will realize that our climate changes remain fairly consistent, with a few blips here and there. You are a shyster, unworthy of all you have gained by spreading deceptive information.
