Mr Gore, speaking at the Copenhagen climate change summit, stated the latest research showed that the Arctic could be completely ice-free in five years.
Is it me, am I really missing the point. The problem that really should be faced is not CO2, Deforestation, Pollution or any of the other 1000 & 1 distractions. The problem we must all face up to is the same one that has been ignored by everyone, except the Chinese, for the past 50 years.
This planet cannot sustain a population that is growing so big and so fast that the inevitable readjustment will happen. If this comes as a virus or war is anyone’s guess.
Lets get real people and stop wasting good air talking about Climate change, bit the bullet and start talk about population control.
But that would really tax the publicity seekers in Copenhagen and we can't have that can we.
This is the first comment to the article from the link you posted. I believe this guy hit the nail right on the head. Stop beating around the bush and address the real problem: Overpopulation!!

Yup, there is no money to be made by controling the population. Al Gore and his business partners would be SOL on the billions of dollars they stand to make.

"The Carbon Disclosure Project provides a secretariat for the world's largest institutional investor collaboration on the business implications of climate change, now representing $31 trillion of assets under management. CDP represents a process whereby institutional investors collectively sign a single global request for disclosure of information on Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Chairman Al Gore spoke at the launch of CDP4 in New York in September, 2006."
China's Population to Peak at 1.4 Billion Around 2026
The latest projections indicate that by 2026, the population of China will begin to decline. Population growth in China, the world's most populous country, is slowing and currently stands at 0.5 percent annually. China surpassed the 1.2 billion population mark in 1994 and reached 1.3 billion in 2006.
According to the latest revisions, India is projected to become the world's most populous country in 2025. The population growth rate in India currently is about 1.4 percent, nearly three times that of China. The difference in the growth rate between the two countries is explained by fertility. India's total fertility rate -- the number of births a woman is expected to have in her lifetime -- is currently estimated at 2.7 and projected to decline slowly, and that is driving population growth in the country.
I'm afraid the sheeple are the morons, he's just an evil, greedy EnviroNazi, oh well, I say we go along with the Carbon Cap program and and the next time we have all the Progressives, EnviroNazis and One World Government proponents in the same room, we extract all the horrible CO2 gas which would of course involve the elimination of the oxygen in the room as well.
A "Carbon Footprint" size zero on Capital Hill and Copenhagen sounds mighty good about now.
