More quotes by Al Gore
You're going to see new processes that utilize waste as the source of energy, so there's no petroleum consumed in the process - that makes the energy balance uniformly positive.
Al Gore
The catastrophe now threatening us is unprecedented - and we often confuse the unprecedented with the improbable.
Al Gore
The ten hottest years in the atmospheric record, going back only 160 years, have been in the last eleven years.
Al Gore
Our insatiable drive to rummage deep beneath the surface of the earth is a willful expansion of our dysfunctional civilization into Nature.
Al Gore
I think I may have a future as a disembodied head.
Al Gore
Our democracy, our constitutional framework is really a kind of software for harnessing the creativity and political imagination for all of our people. The American democratic system was an early political version of Napster.
Al Gore
Clouds of a different sort signal an environmental holocaust without precedent. Once again, world leaders waffle, hoping the danger will dissipate. Yet today the evidence is as clear as the sounds of glass shattering in Berlin.
Al Gore
Our world faces a true planetary emergency. I know the phrase sounds shrill, and I know it's a challenge to the moral imagination.
Al Gore
The role of campaign contributions in our political system and the role of lobbyists have now reached levels that are quite unhealthy for the operations of our democracy. But the antidote, as in past eras of lobbyist excess, is for more involvement by citizens to build pressure on members of the House and Senate to serve the public interest.
Al Gore
If we did not take action to solve this crisis, it could indeed threaten the future of human civilization. That sounds shrill. It sounds hard to accept. I believe it's deadly accurate. But again, we can solve it.
Al Gore
We're putting 70 million tonnes of pollution into the atmosphere every day, trapping an enormous amount of extra heat from the sun inside the earth's atmosphere. It's threatening to push the planet past a tipping point beyond which climate change would be difficult to stop
Al Gore
Iraq does pose a serious threat to the stability of the Persian Gulf and we should organize an international coalition to eliminate his access to weapons of mass destruction. Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to completely deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power.
Al Gore
It should be lifted above partisanship because it's a question of survival. It's a moral issue.
Al Gore
I think the cost of energy will come down when we make this transition to renewable energy.
Al Gore
There is an air of unreality in debating these arcane points when the world is changing in such dramatic ways right in front of our eyes because of global warming.
Al Gore
The planet is in distress and all of the attention is on Paris Hilton.
Al Gore
When it comes to climate, we can all make a big difference.
Al Gore
And nobody is talking about taking guns away from hunters or sportsmen or banning all guns. Nobody is talking about that.
Al Gore
George Bush taking credit for the wall coming down is like the rooster taking credit for the sun rising.
Al Gore
I smoked pot in college and in the Army.
