AUSTIN, Texas — Former Vice President Al Gore on Friday called on SXSW attendees to punish climate-change deniers, saying politicians should pay a price for rejecting “accepted science.”
Gore said smart investors are moving away from companies tied to fossil fuels and toward companies investing in alterternative energy.
"We need to put a price on carbon to accelerate these market trends,” Gore said, referring to a proposed federal cap-and-trade system that would penalize companies that exceeded their carbon-emission limits. “And in order to do that, we need to put a price on denial in politics."

In “The Inconvenient Truth,” the country’s foremost doomsayer warned that the world’s sea levels would rise 20 feet as a result of the polar ice melting. We presume that the former senator will “revise and extend” his remarks on that one, too, since the ice melt simply isn’t happening.
As from “Too Rolling Stoned”/Robin Trower-——”Takers get the honey, givers sing the blues”. And, no doubt that the entire sxsw is run on wind generated power. Right? And all the non-elite attendees walked there and carried all their gear on their backs. No?
I think he bought the west coast place for tipper as part of the divorce deal. No?
Algore is a grifter, just like the Clintons.

I’d prefer that they burn in hell.
The models work exactly as designed.
So he is pushing to “punish” people for bucking “accepted science” much as they did to Galileo Galilei?
Interesting.
Delusion is such a pitiful disease.
gore should pay the price of his lies
I imagine Gore standing next to his Private Jet while the guy with the Fuel Truck refuses to sell him any.
I wonder what he would do then?
Climate change extortionist should be __________
We climate change and totalitarian deniers pay a price every day when we have to read or listen to the utter stupidity, lies and criminality that vomits out of your mouth. All of you AGW promoters are going to pay a horrible price very soon. Solar activity rates are expected to stay low for a couple if decades. Just ask NASA solar scientists you moron. Do not worry though, as us climate change deniers get around town on our snowmobiles, we will decorate all you frozen hippie statutes with nice ornaments.
“In addition to 99 percent of the scientists and all the professional scientific organizations, now Mother Nature is weighing in.” - Al Gore
HELL NO ! King Nebuchadnezzer we will not bow to your idol of of Globle Warming.
Sadly, there are plenty of IPOS/SPOS who will pony up the required fees to hear this assclown lie to them and laugh all the way to the bank.
All we have to do is look back on “accepted science” predictions of what the earth would look like in 2015 to find out who the idiots are.
Ever heard of 'snake oil salesmen' who went from town to town peddling their 'climate change' 'patent medicine'? How about "peace in our time"? How about "I did not sleep with that women."?
As the French say, "plus can change, plus c'est la meme chose". The more things change, the more they remain the same!
By that definition Al's as nutty as a fruitcake. But we knew that already, didn't we?
