COPENHAGEN — Climate guru Al Gore warned UN climate talks Monday that record melting of Polar and Himalayan ice could deprive deprive more than a billion people's access to clean water.

Adding to an avalanche of bad scientific news over the last two years, the former US vice president cited new research showing that the Arctic ice cap may have shrunk to record-low levels last year.

Al’s days of freedom are drawing to a close. Al, get your lawyers and get ready to testify under oath.”

We can jest about the ridiculousness of his comments all we want, and those emails really slowed things down.... but dollar to donuts we’ll be paying through the nose for so-called global warming long before anything, if anything, ever happens to Al Gore. Years of GW being the only message allowed to be heard has left the public wary of doing nothing about what they’ve been led to believe might happen.

Hey Algore: As you said, the center of the earth is

millions of degrees—what do you expect, you total idiot.

Yes you are correct and I've seen this on science shows for kids. It's amazing that more people aren't aware of this.

Sorry, I meant to say that Gore could have added that.
