Gore calls for debate: "We need to use the tried and true method of using the best evidence, debating and discussing it"

Gore links climate change to environmental catastrophes - Story - Environment/Sci - 3 News
"We're still acting as if it's perfectly OK to use this thin-shelled atmosphere as an open sewer. It's not OK," Gore said. "We need to listen to the scientists. We need to use the tried and true method of using the best evidence, debating and discussing it, but not pretending that facts are not facts."
They call this a consensus?
"Only an insignificant fraction of scientists deny the global warming crisis. The time for debate is over. The science is settled."

So said Al Gore ... in 1992.

75 scientists does not a worldwide consensus make...

I say send Lord Christopher Monckton up against the Gaseous One. I'd PAY to see that episode of Jerry Springer.

It sounds as if he is actually and arrogantly gaining confidence. I guess it is possible to be both a knave and a fool.

It won't happen. Once Algore's light headedness from the "success" of the 24 Hours of (Un)Reality dissipates and the cold light of day returns,
he would back out.
The prospect of debating any of the scientists who have challenged him, or Lord Monckton, with his debating skills, who has challenged AG for years,means it is highly improbable to happen.

Let everyone know the facts about he true benefits of an increased amount of CO2 and that there is only a trace amount (less than 0.04%) CO2 in the atmosphere and life depends upon it.
Don't let Al Gore base everything on speculation, exaggeration and scare tactics.
