Al is speaking for God

:roll: :roll: :roll:

And God wants the dimwits to enrich the climate huckster even more.

Not that it really matters, I wonder when the last time he actually went to church?

Mr. Gore has continued to branch out over the years, too, studying mysticism as well as ethics, his primary focus during three semesters at Vanderbilt Divinity School, and at least toying with New Age ideas. He also took a course called Theology and the Natural Sciences and, over time, came to see environmentalism as a religious obligation to protect creation. His 1992 book about the environment, ''Earth in the Balance,'' is suffused with ecospirituality. And clearly, his faith is still in flux.

Could a candidate -- a theoretical candidate, of course -- have no set religious beliefs, or odd or murky ones, or rather than beliefs, just hopes? Sure, he said, and riffed for a while about the faith of presidents past. Then he added, ''I have a defined set of beliefs, but I also believe the eternal truths are difficult if not impossible to capture in language.''

I see he "found" his faith again for his run for president, but that he went more "ivy league" in his attendance.

It is also another area of his life in which much that he says is real but some is enhanced. In a recent interview, he clearly suggested that he goes to church regularly, even in the heat of the presidential campaign, though his own daughter says otherwise.

Although Mr. Gore considers himself a born-again Christian, among even close friends there is some difference of opinion about whether he is a believer or someone who believes in believing, who respects and admires faith in God but finds the required leap outside his head a long, long way to go.

Hard as it is to draw many straight lines between Mr. Gore's religious views and his public life, the one public policy exception, the single place where Mr. Gore does seem to see an explicit link between God and government, is the environment. This, for him, is where God and science seem to meet. Should Mr. Gore lose in November, Ms. Schiff said, ''I could see him pursuing environmentalism and theology in some way.''

for some they have to make their faith fit their agenda, not the other way around,

"Regarding the climate movement," Gore said warming to his point, "there are people who say, 'God is in complete control of everything that happens, and if the Earth is getting warmer, then maybe God intends that.'"

Gore then rejected that conceit.

"Well, no," the million-dollar mansion-owing former veep insisted. "God intends for us to take responsibility for how we treat God's creation, and if we choose to use the thin shell of atmosphere surrounding our planet as an open sewer for 110-million tons of global-warming pollution every day, the consequences are attributable to us."

My view isn't the same as his, I would question why, Why would a creator create something so important and then "dump billions of tons" of it to be released into our atmosphere if it would destroy US and the planet?"

Carbon dioxide is an integral part of the carbon cycle, a biogeochemical cycle in which carbon is exchanged between the Earth's oceans, soil, rocks and the biosphere. Plants and other photoautotrophs use solar energy to produce carbohydrate from atmospheric carbon dioxide and water by photosynthesis. Almost all other organisms depend on carbohydrate derived from photosynthesis as their primary source of energy and carbon compounds.

Carbon dioxide is believed to have played an important effect in regulating Earth's temperature throughout its 4.7 billion year history.

Impact on plant growth
A 1993 review of scientific greenhouse studies found that a doubling of CO2 concentration would stimulate the growth of 156 different plant species by an average of 37%. The amount of gain varied significantly by species, with some showing much greater gains, and a small number showing a loss. For example, a 1979 greenhouse study compared the dry weights of cotton and maize plants grown in different greenhouses, one with double the CO2 concentration of the other. In the enriched CO2 air, the dry weight of 40-day-old cotton plants doubled, but the dry weight of 30-day-old maize plants increased by only 20%.

an article for the climate "deniers".

http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-36130346

It is called Greening of the Earth and its Drivers, and it is based on data from the Modis and AVHRR instruments which have been carried on American satellites over the past 33 years.The sensors show significant greening of something between 25% and 50% of the Earth's vegetated land, which in turn is slowing the pace of climate change as the plants are drawing CO2 from the atmosphere.

The scientists say several factors play a part in the plant boom, including climate change (8%), more nitrogen in the environment (9%), and shifts in land management (4%).

But the main factor, they say, is plants using extra CO2 from human society to fertilise their growth (70%).

Harnessing energy from the sun, green leaves grow by using CO2, water, and nutrients from soil.

"The greening reported in this study has the ability to fundamentally change the cycling of water and carbon in the climate system,

Nic Lewis, an independent scientist often critical of the IPCC, told BBC News: "The magnitude of the increase in vegetation appears to be considerably larger than suggested by previous studies.

"This suggests that projected atmospheric CO2 levels in IPCC scenarios are significantly too high, which implies that global temperature rises projected by IPCC models are also too high, even if the climate is as sensitive to CO2 increases as the models imply."

OOPS,.. seems maybe GOD has a plan already...

Good research Steve. I'm wondering if Al is short for Allah, and he's really got that taqiya thing down. He's one of so many elitist pieces of lying garbage.
