No, none whatsoever. But having said that, i wouldn’t call him the spokeperson for the AGW movement, just a political hack who jumped on a bandwagon. I think the whole green movement needs to repudiate him NOW before he does serious damage to their credibility.

@ Richard the Physicist.

Actually, sceptics on AGW are in the majority. in America only 36% of people think that global warming is real and caused by man.

In the UK a recent poll found [quote] that only two in five people in Britain accept as an established scientific fact that global warming is largely man-made [unquote].

Which of course proves nothing at all one way or the other. But to say that the sceptics are a minority is untrue and unhelpful.

Al Gore is just the only activist with any money or power, while as a human being is a douche bag, he does spread the word rather well on global warming and environmental issues. If you have ANY doubts about what's happening to the earth right now, visit a scientific website and get the numbers for yourself. I wont swing you one way or another, just get the data and make your own assessment. stop following mommy and daddy and fox & friends.

if you actually believe that climate change is a hoax, or is in any way not a significant threat to the safety and well-being of humanity, then you truly are a grade-a imbecile.

fact of the matter is, over the past 100 years, the average temperatures everywhere on earth have risen by .8*C, compared to an average shift of less than .2*C for a comparable time frame anywhere in the history of the world prior to the industrial revolution, excluding ice-ages.

and what’s more, al gore may be a boring old stuffy politician, but at least he’s a politician who is actually trying to do something that would benefit the whole of humanity, whether he gains profit from it or not.

besides, since the release of ‘An Inconvenient Truth,’ the temperatures on earth have dropped by 3/4 of one degree (Fahrenheit scale) – a big change for less than a decade, considering our average temperatures rose about 3/4 of 1 degree Fahrenheit in a matter of about 30 – 50 years following 1880. and on top of that, it only helps to prove that this change, this effect, IS man-made.

grow up.

Do you believe that Al Gore has any credibility left?

To me he has very little credibility. Each time I listen to him speak on climate change he loses even more credibility. He is like his own worst enemy.

The energy audit on his home is a good example, as well as the denial of the hacked emails.

Actually, someone with no credibility should ever ask about another person's credibility. You're bound to get the answer you want from your ideologues. Problem for you is your view is in the minority.
