Some inconvenient facts that Mr. Gore didn't see fit to bring to light:

- On CO2 emissions and raising temperatures, could somebody please explain this graph to me:


- From 1986 to 2000 central Antarctic valleys cooled .7 degrees C per decade with serious ecosystem damage from the cold.

- Both satellite data and ground stations show slight cooling over the last 20 years.

- Side-looking radar measurements show West Antarctic ice is increasting at 26.8 gagatons/yr. Reversing the melting trend of the last 6000 years.

- Antarctic peninsula has warmed several degrees while interior has cooled somewhat. Ice shelves have retreated but sea ice has increase.

- During the last four interglacials, going back 420,000 years, the Earth was warmer than it is today.

- Less Antarctic ice has melted today than occured during the last interglacial.

- Antarctic sea ice has increased since 1979.

- The greater part of Antarctica experiences a longer sea-ice season, lasting 21 days longer than it did in 1979.
