A Convenient DVD

I just picked up "An Inconvenient Truth" from my local, socialist library, where I manage to educate myself despite the shrill screams of the Capitalists who are infuriated that public money is spent that way instead of just giving their companies another tax abatement, but I digress.  I'm about to watch "An Inconvenient Truth".  Do any of you have any pointers or thoughts before I watch it tonight?

Jews did global warming

Yeah, what >>2 said

Well, I watched it.  As usual for Al, the case for global warming and climate change is strong, but he left out direct criticisms of those who deny it.  Dems are so spineless.

Personally, I can't wait for the ice cap on Greenland to literally crack apart and slide off into the North Atlantic like ice off a roof in the Spring.  If that happens within 50 years, ocean levels will rise perhaps 10ft, and all that expensive Florida coastal real estate will be worth jack fuck.

to be fair the majority of criticisms that people hear in the media are over-the-top politics or assertions long ago debunked.  Sober thoughts from actual scientists in the field would be welcome, though, with the understanding that any scientist worth his salt isn't supposed start with a conclusion and just put forward a subset of useful evidence.  It is fine to be very condident in a conclusion when the conclusion is based on preponderance of evidence, but the scientific frame of mind requires that the conclusion be malleable as research goes on.

As a resident of Canada, carbon dioxide induced global warming only helps my economy.

But since man made global warming is an invention by Al Gore, my economy remains as it is.

This is the crux of the issue.

No shit we're experiencing global warming, we're still recovering from an ice age. We don't need some bullshit movie to tell us that, and stopping it is utterly and completely impossible. It's going to get warmer whether we like it or not.

What's important is whether or not humans actually have an effect on it; whether pollution is speeding up the process.

That's not really important, imo.

it sort of is, if we have an affect we can do something, thereby possibly postponing the negative environmental effects some years, which would be quite nice.

HOCKEYSTICK

Doesn't this belong in /newpol/? I thought it was obvious that this is just another of Gore's tactics to regain precedence.

he'd do better in a porno if he really wanted that

I feel the need, the need for weed!
