Ok so he made this "story" about "global warming" that may as well be a scam and impoverish a whole bunch of people

'Gore'bal warming is definately making a lot of money for some people that's for sure...

This whole Peace Prize thing that Al Gore pulled off is another round of mockery on science, history and most of all, environmental issues. I think it was actually done intentionally, or with some political pressure or something, because it doesnt make sense otherwise. Its so easy to pretend like the global warming is going to be "solved" by buying out Al Gore and showering him with awards, money and political support. Nothing else is significantly or even minisculy changed in any case. But I guess it does look good on Al Gore's resume.

I discard my past beliefs for the concepts of Nobel Prize.

I wonder how he will answer the question of what he did to be the rightful recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, I really really want to hear it. Maybe I am stupid or something and I am missing out on some information here, but I cant see it.
