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.

Well, let's just take a straw poll here....

I will guarantee that at least two thirds of the conservatives that I
know and associate with are in pure denial that global warming is
real. There's been pages and pages of debate right here in rec.boats.

There are many conservatives who believe the dinosaur/flintstone
relationship in that cartoon series was real, and that Terry Schiavo
wasn't brain dead.

Wrong. The earth's temperature has increased by one degree in the past
century. This is disputed by very, very few. Whether or not man caused even
one-fiftieth of the one degree rise is the question. The next question is
what to do about it. Many on your side want to spend a lot of money making
Gore rich. Others want to make a lot of money by 'carbon offsets' (more
tree planting?).

I'll know the liberals are taking man's contribution seriously when Sen.
Robert Byrd says, "Let's build a nuclear plant in West Virginia!"

I don't dispute that even though last winter was cold where I live. Lets
hope they are right. I thought we had a high this summer, but turns out in
1937 and 2 other years before it, was warmer.

1) Is it so freaking bad?

2) My SUT and SUV melted Mars polar cap?

Give me a break. They can't predict weather for 3 days and we think they
know how this is going to affect us in 200 years? Lets not be naive. The
most bio diverse places on earth are tropical, and the least are on a polar
ice caps. Just a lot of wasted real-estate I say. Prehistoric times life
and vegetation peeked on the earth with ferns and dinosaurs on the north
slope of Alaska. You don't see 500,000 year old ice cores, because it has
melted before many times.

It is panic propelled by socialistic "sky is falling" eco-farts wanting
government money and prey on social panic. Otherwise for the populous to
keep their minds off of taxes, inflation, dumb wars and other issues.

Remember that carbon was once in the air that we burn today. Plants eat it,
and it isn't like cadmium, concentraighted lead, plastics and other man made
junk like PCBs.
