Former Vice president Al Gore on Friday refuted claims that global warning is a myth, saying that 97 to 98 percent of the worlds scientists attest to its veracity.
Gore was the keynote speaker at the inauguration of Hampshire College President Jonathan Lash Friday. The theme of Lashs inauguration was Educating for Change: critical thinking in a critical time.
Now there are some talk radio show hosts, they say that (global warming is) not (real)," Gore said. "Its up to you; my point is we must respond. What the scientists tell us is going to take place if we do not is too awful to contemplate.
Just before Gore spoke, he was he introduced by Hampshire alumnus Gary Hirshberg, co-founder of the New Hampshire-based Stonyfield Farm, who announced a $1 million donation to the college for its commitment to the environment.

In 2007, Gore won the Nobel Prize with the U.N Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. An Inconvenient Truth, a film about his campaign to educate people about global warming, won two Oscars in 2006. Since then some have contested the veracity of the claims that climate change is caused by humans.
Gore said that some claim environmental change is caused by sunspots or volcanoes. Thats not true. Its an urgent problem that requires urgent attention and must be addressed, he said.
Gore told students that some doubted the wisdom of President John F. Kennedy saying in the early 1960s that the United State would land on the moon within a decade. You will have the opportunity to do things greater than you can possibly imagine," Gore said. "And now is the time. We need an American spring this spring. We need to occupy democracy.

The real AlGore ... Nobel Prize laureate ... inventor of the Internet ... savior of the planet ... dumber than a box of rocks!
But you've gotta feel for the guy...if only he had managed to carry his HOME STATE in 2000 he'd be "Mr President" today.
hahaha
Gore has really morphed into an old lunatic Cleveland Amory type. Looks like he’s been on the sauce too.
The boys at Kleiner Perkins and Byers are heavily invested in the global warming hoax. It is imperative for hucksters like them to maintain the myth until they can cash out.
Can someone post a pic of Gore’s giant office with three huge flat screens and his Nashville residence that burns more energy in a month than the average American home does in a year?
By the way, does Al Gore toddle around in a chauffeured SUV and take chartered private jet flights?
Yeah, Al, Global warming is real...
Tell that to my poor garden plants that froze last night.... in Southern NM.
Uuuuhhhh, what you got against “rocks?” :))
Why would anyone plop that kind of money down on property that, if their predictions were true, would end up being washed out to sea?
This Al creep needs to fade away.

Is Gore’s carbon footprint so large he needs some more ill gotten gains?
Yep, that's how science 'does it' - by vote.
IMHO..the Western Socialist/Communist governments were anticipating carbon taxation as their financial salvation.
