***...including his signature cause, global climate change.***
Really? I thought his ‘signature’ cause was global warming. I know that because his ‘signature’ video says that in “An Inconvenient Truth”.
Ain’t that right Al?
How does a FALL in the average temperatures reflect a negative in the sustainability of life?
At lower temperatures MORE CO2 is absorbed and held in the surface waters of the world, supplying more of the plant food that aquatic plants need to thrive and produce oxygen, which in turn makes a more hospitable environment for the sea life. Oxygen dissolved in water soon reaches its saturation point, and escapes to the atmosphere at large, where it is available to the majority of the rest of living things on the planet. I am not sure how it would be calculated, but in all likelihood, the surface of the seas probably give up MORE oxygen to the atmosphere than all the rain forests and savannahs put together.
If only because so much of the surface of the planet is covered with water of varying degrees of salinity.
Al Gore is entirely devoid of any kind of critical thinking.
So God, will take this statement "No such thing as ethical oil" and judge him by it.
