The space race was part moral crusade part engineering miracle, driven by said crusade and commitment, so was the race for the bomb- same can be said is needed here. It sometimes takes a moral crusade to drive the engineering.

Excellent parallel. The politics only begins to move, in situations as extreme and large as the global warming issues when moral crusades appear. That's precisely what Gore is attempting.
