If you look
at this from the point of view of somebody who's trying to use this information for anything other than scientific satisfaction, whether or not these very, very

but the way I look
at it... Gore's real estate investment is a clear sign that he doesn't buy into his own hype... i.e. that the sea

at such a
rapid rate due to man - made global warming the coast lines and life as we know it is going to be wiped out unless we immediately agree to Cap and Trade!!!
The IPCC 2007 Fourth Assessment of climate change science concluded that large reductions in the emissions of greenhouse gases, principally CO2, are needed soon to slow the increase of atmospheric concentrations, and avoid reaching unacceptable levels.However, climate change is happening even faster than previously estimated; global CO2 emissions since 2000 have been higher than even the highest predictions, Arctic sea ice has been melting
at rates much faster than predicted, and the rise in the sea
level has become more
rapid.

Lead author James Hansen, NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies, New York, concludes: «If global emissions of carbon dioxide continue to rise
at the
rate of the past decade, this research shows that there will be disastrous effects, including increasingly
rapid sea
level rise, increased frequency of droughts and floods, and increased stress on wildlife and plants due to rapidly shifting climate zones.»

These feedbacks are the primary source of uncertainty in how much the earth will warm (side note: the question that most climate scientists who study the forcing due to CO2 try to answer is, how much will the long - term globally averaged surface temperature of the earth rise due to an
rapid rise of CO2 to twice its industrial
level, that is, 270 ppm to 540 ppm; it is currently about 380 last time I checked, and rising
at ~ 3ppm / year, although this
rate of change appears to be accelerating).
