Al Gore Wins! The Nobel Peace Prize

The 2007 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to both Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and Albert Arnold (Al) Gore Jr. for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change as stated in Nobelprize.org website.

Now I hope this award increases the world's awareness that this problem is real and not something that would go away. It is something moral and spiritual issue and not just political as some quarters would say now that a former United States Vice President was given this award. This might also paved the way for the world to focus more attention on what is happening with our environment and take actions to avert further damage to the ozone layer.

The United States of America being one, if not the only, super power in the world should thus take the lead in promoting environment awareness to its citizens. What is startling is that instead of them leading the way to conservation they are steering clear of the Kyoto Agreement. The reason they gave to the world is that each nation should determine its own way of lessening carbon emission. This is bull!

I hope the American people realized that they now have a way to help the environment by pressing Al Gore to run for President and if Hillary Clinton really loves her country she would step aside and do the ultimate sacrifice of her political career. If Al Gore becomes the President of the United States of America there is hope that America would change its position about climate change and be the leader nation that it should be.
