DODGING DEBATE

"Once again Al Gore has ducked the chance to debate critics of his global warming doomsday predictions," John Fund writes at www.opinionjournal.com.

"The former vice president loves to lecture others on the need to address global warming, but usually insists on appearing alone and largely unchallenged at conferences," Mr. Fund said.

"At the Wall Street Journal's ECO:nomics conference in Santa Barbara, Calif., Mr. Gore was initially scheduled to appear with Czech President Vaclav Klaus, a noted skeptic on global warming. Mr. Gore changed his schedule so he could appear the previous day. President Klaus told me this week that the major reason he agreed to travel from Europe was the chance to interact with Mr. Gore. 'I don't understand all of this reluctance to engage with others,' he told me.

"Sounds to me like a case of bologna rejecting the grinder. Mr. Gore knows that the science backing up his calls for dramatic reduction of carbon emissions is increasingly shaky and that even adopting the Kyoto targets for such reductions would do little to address the accumulation of atmospheric carbon dioxide.

"Several other critics of Mr. Gore also tried to interact with him at the conference - with little success. Willie Soon, an astrophysicist at Harvard, asked Mr. Gore during the Q-and-A period what exactly he was trying to accomplish in practical terms with his proposals. Mr. Gore ignored the substance of the question and snidely said he was trying to save humanity."
