One day climate change skeptics will be seen in the same negative light as racists, or so says former Vice President Al Gore.
In an interview with former advertising executive and Climate Reality Project collaborator Alex Bogusky broadcasted on UStream on Friday, Gore explained that in order for climate change alarmists to succeed, they must “win the conversation” against those who deny there is a crisis.
“I remember, again going back to my early years in the South, when the Civil Rights revolution was unfolding, there were two things that really made an impression on me,” Gore said. “My generation watched Bull Connor turning the hose on civil rights demonstrators and we went, ‘Whoa! How gross and evil is that?’ My generation asked old people, ‘Explain to me again why it is okay to discriminate against people because their skin color is different?’ And when they couldn’t really answer that question with integrity, the change really started.”
The former vice president recalled how society succeeded in marginalizing racists and said climate change skeptics must be defeated in the same manner.

I think Gore's motives are purely financial. He thought he'd ride the global warming cash cow into a very wealthy retirement thanks to cap and trade and now he sees those prospects rapidly dwindling.
This isn't a guy who lives the life of someone who actually believes in global warming. If these alarmists really believed the world was in actual peril wouldn't they drastically change their lifestyle? Funny how he won't debate anyone on the issue either (but what else do expect from a guy who got a D in his college science class).
This is just a bunch of ginned-up rhetoric from someone who's desperately trying to be relevant.
