Al Gore’s crusade against global warning is not yet warm enough!

Sir, Al Gore’s crusade for a better environment has now an official web site http://www.climatecrisis.net/. The site includes a long list of recommendations on how citizens could help, where we find all the standards like driving less and recycling more but also requests to shift up gears and go for planting a tree and refraining from eating meat, since cows are one of the greatest methane emitters.

Unfortunately in the list we cannot find a “write to your Congressmen and ask for a tax on gas (petrol)", which by cutting that demand that consumes one of every seven barrels of oil in the world just on American roads and highways, would be the best and most concrete evidence of really wanting to help out the environment… and also the American economy at large.

As a result we have to conclude that Gore’s crusade has not yet warmed up enough.
