Al Gore has not offered any data addressing the differences between natural climate change and human-caused climate change. It has been rather obvious that the objective of the liberals has been global socialism while Mr. Gore attempts to use a foolish scheme of selling carbon offsets to further socialism.
It would be most revealing to have Mr. Gore explain the following: The Medieval Climate Optimum period occurred in the Middle Ages, yet, coal was not utilized until the mid-19th century, and natural gas and petroleum were not utilized until the mid-20th century. Without the use of fossil fuels that would increase atmospheric carbon dioxide, why was the Earth warmer 1,000 years ago? What was the cause of the climate change?
The Little Ice Age occurred between the 16th and 18th centuries. The Earth has been warming for 300 years without extensive use of fossil fuels, except for the last 25 years. What caused the Ice Age and the subsequent warming? Also, for the last nine years since 1998, the Earth has been cooler. With atmospheric carbon dioxide increasing, what is the cause of the cooling?
