If Al Gore is so concerned about the environment, why doesn't he stop flying the jets all over the world. I am serious on this. He is actually polluting a lot. I do not want to hear anything about carbon credits. I think the carbon credits are just a money making or guilt reducing racket anyways. But even if he believed in them, he is still flying around the country polluting the air. He could by carbon credits AND not fly, which would actually help.
A lot of musical artists are on this global warming band wagon, yet they still go on tour. Touring is a major polluter. When you think of their planes, all the tractor trailers and then the thousands of vehicles from the fans. Seriously, why don't these artists stop touring and only make CD's. This would make a dramatic difference.
How come it seems like the people with wealth are the ones telling me I should change my life, yet they would never consider living the way they tell me to.
Please.....answer these questions seriously. I would love to hear their answers, but that probably won't happen.
Except the link is a Wikipedia article and it's not exactly the most concise article encyclopedia in the world.
Anywho, here are a few more links attempting to dispell global warming (I'd post more, but it's a bit overkill). One is from CBN News, which is actually kind of neutral on what is causing warming here: http://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/news/050614a.aspx.
And here's an article from Tom DeLay.com: http://www.tomdelay.com/home/2006/12/13/british-paper-on-global-warming-its-all-just-hot-air.html (broken link).
And finally, one from WorldNetDaily by one Walter Williams: http://wnd.com/news/printer-friendly.asp?ARTICLE_ID=54897 (broken link).
Before you post again, hello-world, try to look these over and digest the information therein, so to speak.
thanks for the links.
if you're really feeling up for it and wikipedia's not quite "there" for you (i agree wikipedia articles can sometimes be a little lacking), i suppose you can always dig into the references used in that wikipedia article. there's a good one there by richard alley in nature.com, for example (though you might need an account with nature to read it). feel free to let me know what you think of that one.

hello-world, please scroll up. I would love your answers on my post. Please...serious answers WITHOUT 97 scientific articles. The questions are simple. Thanks.
Also, I helped out with the global warming today. I drove home with my windows down and the AC cranked. I think it made a difference.
Did you check my shoe size to make this comment or are you joking?
it's what al, a man that could buy or sell a lot of us if he wanted to, does...per the media anyhow...
