And yet, most of the evidence you have posted to back this statement up has been dubious at best. There are indeed disagreeing voices, but it's politically-directed crap like this that clouds our vision.
Example - There is no oil money behind the book, it's all natural gas. :roll: Link
But there's plenty of oil money behind the two individuals, check out the Science & Environmental Policy Project, and the Hudson Institute.

Here, a climate scientist listens to Avery & Singers arguments.

Gosh it is fun looking at this total lack of consensus.

Using your rationale, NASA's James Hansen is a farce. Thank you, George Soros. There he is again.

According to Hansen himself - The bottom line is: I did not receive one thin dime from George Soros. Perhaps GAP did, but I would be surprised if they got $720,000.

Hansen’s claims of censorship by NASA attracted the attention not only of the United States Congress and various media outlets, but also of several legal defense organizations. The 2006 George Soros Foundations Network Report detailed the work of the Open Society Institute (OSI) in conducting a “campaign on Hansen's behalf” run by “the Government Accountability Project (GAP), a whistleblower protection organization and OSI grantee.” The report indicated this campaign had “resulted in a decision by NASA to revisit its media policy .” The report further stated this campaign was prompted by the experience of Hansen who “protested attempts to silence him after officials at NASA ordered him to refer press inquiries to the public affairs office and required the presence of a public affairs representative at any interview.”. Hansen addressed this specific issue publicly and in writing, saying he did “accept pro bono legal advice for a while” from GAP but did not receive any direct funds.
Notice the timing, the money comes into the picture after Hansen goes public. A dissimiliar case to fossilfuel-funded books & programs.

Yes. Soros has to spot his pigeons first. Same ingedients. Same food on the platter.

Opposite scientific theories can be swapped from here to doomsday(pun intended). I take it as this then I'm done with the subject. Is ice at the Arctic and Greenland melting accelerated? Yes it is. Has breathing illness's and diseases increased in the last one hundred years? Dramatically so. Is earth warming naturally? Yes it is. Is pollution accelerating the process? Yes it is. Is the U.S. a major polluter? Yes it's the third highest in the world. That all I need to know to know humanity needs to address pollution. I don't need a bunch of charts from the middle ages to tell me this.

The awarding of the Nobel Peace Price to former Vice President Al Gore could have a noticeable impact on the presidential election campaign in the United States. Suddenly the candidates are discovering their green sides -- even the Republicans.

If envy is the highest form of human recognition, Al Gore can't complain. The response from the White House to the Norwegian Nobel Committee's decision to award Gore the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize was understated, to say the least. There was no comment from US President George W. Bush, nor from his press secretary, Dana Perino. The White House eventually sent its deputy press secretary, Tony Fratto, to face the cameras. "Obviously, it's an important recognition," said Fratto. Referring to the president, he added, "Of course he's happy for Vice President Gore."

Such terse responses will likely do the conservatives more harm than good. Indeed, the political aftershocks of the award will be considerable. The awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to an avowed anti-Bush activist only weeks before the official start of an election year could produce a tectonic shift in the already unstable US political landscape.

So...When will he anounce? or will he go the VP route again?

One begins to wonder whether NASA itself thinks it's funded by Soros. :damn:

Gents I still do not understand why USA does not build anymore new nuclear energy plants?
my answer is OIL companies(read Bush &Co) are not interested.
Democrat Al Gore as a Nobel Prize winner....
Same as G.W. Bush with his WMD in Iraq ... liberator


May be better to be subjects of the E-II Crown than to have such honorable gents ( and probably lady ) as head of state?( God, save us from Hillary!).
Bill of rights started to look like a mirage in the Sahara's sands.

Good sides to be subjects of the crown:
- better school education
- 40 and less hours to work
- bigger vacations
- you have time to read, to travel, for your loveones (including your kids and even wife)
- nobility ( knighthood)* and i am very serious about this.
- better health care
- professional police, they will not shoot you because they just had feeling that you are armed
- less shooting practice in schools
- freedom of speech including jokes about everything in airports.
- less sexual harasment cases
- no Darwin debates

Bad side:
- all ot the above &
- bigger taxes

Whats obvious is that you jump on anything at all that paints the picture you want but are too lazy to check if there is any accuracy in it. I picked one at random to research and stopped there because it's so obvious just reading his explanation that he's bs.

Gore says coral reefs are “bleaching” because of “global warming.” They are not. There was some bleaching in 1998, but this was caused by the exceptional El Nino Southern Oscillation that year. Two similarly severe El Ninos over the past 250 years also caused extensive bleaching. “Global warming” was nothing to do with it.
Ms. Kreider says, “The IPCC and other scientific bodies have long identified increases in ocean temperatures with the bleaching of coral reefs.” So they have: but the bleaching in 1998 occurred as a result not of “global warming” but of a rare, though not unique, severe El Nino Southern Oscillation.
First this idiot is talking about only 1998. WhooptyDo. If you want to know go to a marine biology site.

There are a number of nuclear plants being planned and built. The problem before was the publics reaction to Three Mile Island and enforced by Chernobyl. Safety has made a lot of strides since then.
