And then they make shallow arguments like "Al Gore will get here by plane"...yeah, so what? I'm sure Al Gore isn't implying that people should immediately stop using vehicles of any type. But we need to acknowledge the problem. And even if he came in on horse and carriage, that wouldn't help, it has to be a societal change that we all make together, do develop more envirofriendly technology, etc.

What are you doing to make the world a better place?
I sure hope you don't drive an SUV or truck or minivan for that matter. Lets no forget thigns like plastics that also rely on this devil oil. Before you play the same SUV card that everyone plays to make themselves feel better about the situation when was the last time YOU looked in the mirror?
I didn't dismiss global warming. I dismissed Al Gore's propaghanda. I especially like all the work that HIS scientists did and the 100% consensus among the scientific comunity that we are the cause, and nothing else, of global warming.
