A terrific honor for Al and the United States.

Yep, and congrats to him for his award and commitment, regardless of
whether
global warming is indeed, man induced.

It's ironic that had he been declared the victor in 2000, it is unlikely
he
would receiving a Nobel prize today.

Most republicans think that global warming isn't happening in any way,
man made or otherwise. Imagine how awful they must feel realizing that
someone won the Nobel prize for something they believe to be
fictitous.

This is the citation of the Nobel Committee:

"Indications of changes in the earth's future climate must be treated
with the utmost seriousness, and with the precautionary principle
uppermost in our minds. Extensive climate changes may alter and
threaten the living conditions of much of mankind. They may induce
large-scale migration and lead to greater competition for the earth's
resources. Such changes will place particularly heavy burdens on the
world's most vulnerable countries. There may be increased danger of
violent conflicts and wars, within and between states."

It's a pretty reasonable statement, as long as "precautionary principle" is
carefully considered, which of course nobody agrees on. The other extreme's
probably a lousy idea: Don't look, don't think about it, don't talk about
it.

This is the intent of the Nobel Peace Prize as stated in Albert
Nobel's will establishing the Nobel Peace Prize.

"to the person who shall have done the most or the best work for
fraternity between the nations, for the abolition or reduction of
standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace
congresses".

There doesn't seem to be a lot of "precautionary principle" in that
statement for subjective climate change theory movies. :)

Thus, for saving the world from the domination of Omicron Persei VIII,
I gladly claim the prize because it may (or may not) happen. The
precautionary principle is that I may (or may not) save the world from
alien invasion fits perfectly.

Gimme my money.
