Didn't believe it

My first impression of the film was that if it was all true, and we knew how to fix the problem, why weren't we fixing it? However, after looking into some of the statements Al Gore made in the film, I came to realize, that a lot of the information just wasn't accurate.

Global Warming, for the most part, is exactly the opposite of what is happening. It's not getting warmer, temperatures have actually been getting slightly colder. The whole Global Warming issue was simply brought up to push across Al Gore's own personal agenda, to make him look smart, and ideally get him elected president so he could save the world.

Barry's Response - Yes, Tiffany, that rumour has existed for some time now. There may be an element of (inconvenient) truth to it.

Also we have seen miniature trends in air temperature observations over even the last few years (or decades) that have shown increases AND decreases in global temperatures. They happen all the time and are a part of the natural evolution of our ecological climate.

Why? The reasons cited are numerous. They include greenhouses, changes in solar output, changes in atmospheric opacity, increased urban heat island effect near observation stations and changes in the number and locations of stations to name a few.

Thanks for your input.
