Al Gore
Al Gore served as the Vice President of the United States, under President Bill Clinton. A Democrat from Tennessee, he has spent much of his life concerned with environmental issues, global climate change, and environmental policy. After an unsuccessful bid for the presidency in the 2000 election, Gore accepted several visiting professorships at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism, Middle Tennessee State University, UCLA, and Fisk University.
- Gore starred in the film “An Inconvenient Truth,” which has increased the visibility of global warming, an environmental issue Gore has followed since the 1970’s. The documentary includes Gore’s recent speeches, talks, and research. Gore has also published a book under the same title.
- Though no longer in public office, Gore continues to serve the American people. For example, in the days following the devastation of the Gulf Coast and New Orleans due to Hurricane Katrina, Gore chartered 2 aircraft to evacuate 270 evacuees to safety.

the hypothesis was that the increase in CO2 would cause increased water vapor at the equator and form a hot spot in the upper troposphere. Despite all the hooha about it. This hot spot has never been observed. Water vapor is a more efficient absorber of heat than CO2. The basic problems appear to be that the models that predict all of this stuff ignore negative feedbacks from clouds and other things in the correct manner. When you get water vapor up high enough, and high enough is not all that high, it forms clouds. Clouds increase the albedo of the earth and re-radiate the energy. Sad but the vested interests of klimatic kleptocracy (sic) will not cave into science easily. Al Gorge has made 200 mn peddling his rot. Others around are like him. Do not expect them to throw in the towel just because they have been proved to be wrong. [You can never prove a model to be right, but you can prove that a model can fail. The CO2 model is failing.]
