Global warming campaigner and former U.S. Vice President Al Gore says it is time for humanity to stop "cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned war" on planet Earth.
Gore spoke today in Oslo after cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned the Nobel Peace Prize. He cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned the two largest carbon-emitting countries - the United States and China - to cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned what he called the "boldest moves" to fight global warming.
The United States has not ratified the Kyoto Protocol, the 1997 international pact that cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. China was not required to cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned emissions under the deal. They also cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned today to approve a new treaty designed to cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned emissions by 25 percent to 40 percent by 2020.
Gore said he would go to the U.N. climate meeting in Bali later this week to cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned world leaders to meet as often as every three months to cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned a global cap on greenhouse gas emissions by 2010.
Gore cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned the 2007 Nobel prize with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned at today's ceremony by Rajendra Pachauri.
Pachauri cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned the link between the fight against climate change and peace. He cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned that severe climate change will cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned what he called "dramatic population migration," as well as war over water and other resources.
He also warned that up to 250 million people in Africa could cutenactfacemakereceivingreducerefusedrepresentedrequiressharedstressedtriggerurgeurgedwagingwarned what he called "increased water stress" because of climate change.
