Okay, so I don’t know who was too cheap to pay for a fact-checking intern on this article by William J. Broad, published under the “Science” section of the NYT, but this anti-Gore nonsense is getting more than a little ridiculous.
First, there was the unsubstantiated claim that Gore’s carbon footprint was huge (by the very same people who think dirty coal emissions are a good thing). Now this. Honestly, the right-wingers must be scared shitless of Gore, or they wouldn’t be so ardently risking their reputations as “honest,” “rational,” conservatives. Not to mention that they are once again earning the well-deserved title of Hypocritical Scandalmongers.
Ugh. It makes me ill to think that people like these perpetrators of disinformation are allowed to sacrifice the future of the entire planet in order to make a buck or two billion and pretend that their insular self-righteousness will save them from global disaster.
Not to mention how much the hot air they spew constantly is contributing to global warming. *grin* Okay, that last one was just in good fun. No seriously, everyone knows that it’s right-wing pundits’ farts that cause global warming.
Did I mention how much I love Grist? And David Roberts?
Ok, I admit I haven’t see “Inconvenient Truth” because it came ” here” that is near enough for me to get over “there” and see it, but I hadn’t finished marking exams..so, I missed it.
I’m trolling, looking for help.
I’m writing a story. And at this point in the story (about me, actually) this guy is caught in a traffic jam.
I want to compare the random collection of characters in a traffic jam (USA, near Atlanta , Ga, actually) to the random collection of living things, or other, caught in a drop of pond water.
So, can you guide me to a source that would explain and identify the random collection of living and non-living elements in a drop of pond water?
Thanks, for any help I’ll be back.
Regards from Japan.
