Thursday, June 1, 2017 – Former US Vice President and environmentalist Al Gore arrives in Los Angeles. When asked about President Donald Trump’s decision to pull the United States out of the Paris climate agreement, Gore responded, “this is a reckless and indefensible move. It undermines the standing of our country and threatens the ability of humanity to solve the climate crisis in time. But make no mistake about it, if President Trump will not lead this struggle, the American people will — CEO’s, civic leaders, mayors, governors, average citizens — we’re in the middle of a clean energy revolution now that is unstoppable. We are going to solve the climate crisis, no matter what President Trump does.”

Al Gore is a loser. Who would listen to him?
The 43rd President of the United States. He lost the state of Florida by less than 540 votes. 2000 people accidentally voted for Pat Buchanan because of the typography of the ballot.
Looking at the American political scene since 2001, sadly Mr Gore looks like the best president America NEVER had.
Al Gore, you are so motivating!
Gore is getting off his private jet
Super cereal!
RD says; Go have some heart failure you crazy bastard , while you were Vice with that creep Clinton , you came to California and demanded Saturation Housing ! you took Cattle ranches and farm land , turned it into Mega city houses and cars ! Remember that ? Your Climate Change is just for you to make more money ! You " F"n jerk .
Only thing threatened is Gore's income. Not one of this "prophet's" forecasts has come true. Not one.
How much Money is Gore and the other Democrats going to LOSE now that Pres. Trump has cut off their money supply!! Pres. Trump saved the USA over Two Trillion Dollars and where was all that money going and to who?? Ask Hollywood.
The climate accord does nothing for the climate!! It's just a smoke screen for there evil plans!!! Thanks to Trump they got kicked there ass and now they are screaming like devils do!! In Jesus Name!! Amen!!
Of course he is trying to hide his crimes!! He's a hypocrite!!
Gore was VP when they let Kyoto die deliberately and did not participate. Folks, you don't find a bigger hypocrite anywhere on this planet.
A man who owns 4 huge houses and flies around the world on private jets calls Trump reckless.
Is there anyone left who listens to this lunatic any longer? I don't think so.
Gore is so concerned about the environment, he flies around the world in a private jet, what is that doing to the environment. Global warming is a figment of his imagination to put money in his pocket. He has nothing else going for him so he tells lies and is trying to scare the crap out of you fools who believe it. You idiots need to start using the brain you were born with instead of being brainwashed that idiot Al Gore.
DD you are the stupid one do some research.
What climate crisis? Who is this fat slob??
Do as I say not as I do!
I'm Al Gore!
My carbon footprint with the companies that I own along with my investments makes me the largest polluter in the green movement that I hijacked years and years ago.
What up LEO my N!
I also invented the internet… and NAFTA will be good for the American worker Larry! What a Pig Bladder!
Peace from Sanibel Island Florida
I'm going to make a few more billion in carbon credit fraud no matter what. Now excuse me while I get into my massive carbon machine here and chill after that long plane ride, and head home to my solar less mansion so I can eat some babies dipped in crude oil.
WHO: United States Among Least Polluting Nations on the Planet
Despite recent attempts to paint the United States as a major global
polluter, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), the U.S. is
among the cleanest nations on the planet.
In the most recent WHO report
on air pollution, the United States was listed as one of the countries
with the cleanest air in the world, significantly cleaner in fact than
the air in Germany, Italy, Switzerland, the UK, Japan, Austria and
France.
While France and other G7 countries lamented the U.S. exit from the
Paris climate accord, America’s air is already cleaner than that of any
other country in the G7.
Following standard practice, the WHO measures air pollution by the
mean annual concentration of fine suspended particles of less than 2.5
microns in diameter. These are the particles that cause diseases of all
sorts and are responsible for most deaths by air pollution.
According to the WHO, exposure
to particulate matter increases the risk of acute lower respiratory
infection, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, heart disease, stroke
and lung cancer.
The report, which analyzed the “annual median concentration of
particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter of 2.5 μm or less
(PM2.5) for both urban population and rural and urban population” found
that the United States was one of the most pollution-free nations in the
world.
The annual mean concentrations of particulate matter in the air range
from less than 10 to over 100 µg/m3, the report states. At the very low
end of the spectrum, the United States has a concentration of just 8,
while China has a concentration more than seven times higher at 59,
India at 66, Egypt at 101 and Saudi Arabia with the worst air pollution
at 127.
“The mean annual concentration of fine suspended particles of less
than 2.5 microns in diameter is a common measure of air pollution,” the
WHO states.
The WHO report is corroborated by a series of other such studies on air
and water pollution.
In a recent list
of the 25 cleanest cities in the world, the only country to boast three
cities among the cleanest on the planet was the United States of
America, with Chicago coming in second place, Honolulu coming in fourth,
and Portland, OR, coming in sixteenth. Unsurprisingly, no cities from
China, Russia or India made the list at all.
Similarly, another list of the 15 most polluted
cities in the world featured three cities from China, three cities from
Saudi Arabia, and a whopping seven cities from India. No U.S. city made
the list.
A third list, ranking the ten cleanest and ten most polluted cities in
the world,
placed two U.S. cities on the list of cleanest cities on the planet. The
list of the most polluted cities in the world was led by two cities
from China followed by two more cities from India. Two Russian cities
also made the list. Again, no U.S. cities were found here.
With such relatively clean air throughout America, how can even
reputable news agencies like Reuters continue spreading the well-worn
lie that the United States is one of the “biggest polluters” in the
world?
Rather than follow the time-tested practice used by the World Health
Organization, which measures levels of disease-causing pollutants that
get into people’s lungs, some have played a shell game, swapping a new
measure of “pollution” based solely on emissions of carbon dioxide.
The problem with this ploy is that carbon dioxide is not a pollutant
and it is dishonest to say it is. CO2 is colorless, odorless and
completely non-toxic. Plants depend on it to live and grow, and human
beings draw some into their lungs with every breath they take to no ill
effect whatsoever.
Growers regularly pump CO2 into greenhouses, raising levels to three
times that of the natural environment, to produce stronger, greener,
healthier plants.
Current levels of carbon dioxide concentration in the environment are
substantially lower than they have been during earlier periods in the
planet’s history. Without human intervention, the concentration of CO2
has climbed as high as 7,000 parts per million (ppm) in prior eras,
whereas at present the concentration is just over 400 ppm.
Some experts, such as UN climate scientist Dr.
Indur Goklany, have defended rising CO2 levels as a good thing for
humanity. Goklany has argued that the rising level of carbon dioxide in
the earth’s atmosphere “is currently net beneficial for both humanity
and the biosphere generally.”
“The benefits are real, whereas the costs of warming are uncertain,” he said.
While the United States must remain vigilant to keep the level of
real, dangerous pollutants to a minimum, it may take some consolation in
the fact that among G7 nations, it has the cleanest air of all.
