 "We're still acting as if it's perfectly OK to use this thin-shelled
atmosphere as an open sewer. It's not OK," Gore said. "We need to listen
to the scientists. We need to use the tried and true method of using the
best evidence, debating and discussing it, but not pretending that facts
are not facts."

the Biennial Meeting
