Doesn't change the fact that Global Warming is happening, it's Man-made and will be the end of us unless action is taken. You are right, and although I am not completely convinced, I have reduced my Driving by 1/3 and I have reduced my energy use by a third, and I am looking at re-roofing my house and reinsulating it. I keep my thermometer at 68 degrees and wear a sweater. I grow many of my own vegetables organically. I object to Al Gore using 10 times the amount of energy an average family uses. I object to his idea he can buy his way out of reducing his Carbon Footprint. He should be an example of great economy not excessive and lavish carbon use. Al Gore is a joke, and a fraud, call me when he uses less than everyone else instead of more.

So, Manny, What steps have you personally taken to reduce your carbon footprint, and to use less energy, obviously Al Gore has yet to begin. But since you are so earnest in this and so worried, lead by example, what are you doing to use less energy.

This is clearly a sad attempt at deflecting the issue. Doesn't change the fact that Global Warming is happening, it's Man-made and will be the end of us unless action is taken. Convince me! Some 18,000 years ago, where I (and you) presently sit was covered by 2,000 feet (or more) of ice. Please explain what mankind of that era did to change that. What did mankind do to make the 2,000 feet of ice disappear and when did they do it? Id
