He’s won a Nobel peace prize. He’s won an academy award. He was vice president of the United States. He claims to have invented the internet. He claims to have been the inspiration for “Love story”.
He’s made a fortune from scaremongering. His mansion uses 20 times more electricity than the average household in the US.

And now he’s promoting civil disobedience.

Speaking before Bill Clinton’s Global Initiative, junk science advocate Gore called on young people to take the law into their own hands because the climate, he claims, is a-changin’. He told the gathering in New York City that “the world has lost ground to the climate crisis” and the time for action is now.

“If you’re a young person looking at the future of this planet and looking at what is being done right now, and not done, I believe we have reached the stage where it is time for civil disobedience to prevent the construction of new coal plants that do not have carbon capture and sequestration,” Gore said to loud applause.

His comments come two weeks after a British jury acquitted six Greenpeace activists accused of causing property damage at a power plant. The jury felt the “protest” was acceptable because the “protesters” feared the plant would contribute to global warming.

Luddites of the world, unite!
