Gore avoids the debate on global warming

Al Gore is jet-setting around the world (presumably in a fuel efficient private jet) warning anyone who will listen of the imminent dangers of global warming and virtually demanding the world do something now to curb it. But interestingly, he is avoiding any debate on the issue:

Al Gore is traveling around the world telling us how we must fundamentally change our civilization due to the threat of global warming. Last week he was in Denmark to disseminate this message. But if we are to embark on the costliest political project ever, maybe we should make sure it rests on solid ground. It should be based on the best facts, not just the convenient ones. This was the background for the biggest Danish newspaper, Jyllands-Posten, to set up an investigative interview with Mr. Gore. And for this, the paper thought it would be obvious to team up with Bjorn Lomborg, author of "The Skeptical Environmentalist," who has provided one of the clearest counterpoints to Mr. Gore's tune.

Read the OpinionJournal piece. The more light that is being shed on this political hot potato is causing the vociferous left to become even more vociferous. They avoid substantive debate and attempt to marginalize the growing number of skeptics by casting aspersions on their character...a typical leftist ploy.
