I will say this ....

When I watched "An Inconvenient Truth" I thought it to be a well put together documentary.

But when I encountered serious skeptics and said "well hey lets check the references" and then I went and looked for them ... Al Gore's book (which I didn't buy but did view at Borders) doesn't list any of the major references to back up his points.

Now that doesn't mean that he doesn't have references but it would have added a lot of credibility if they had at least included them in the appendix of the book.

One interesting thing thought is that his movie claimed that climate change was going to change America's weather patterns over next 50 years, effectively making the west into a desert and the north east into a frozen winter land, at least temporarily when the major storms hit.

The movie never claimed it wouldn't snow again despite the jokes on Fox news about this topic.
