Until the some on right can disassociate Gore and politics from the issue, facts will have no impact.

Facts will have no impact because the human ability to take appropriate measures in the face of vague but real future threats asymptotically approaches zero the further away the threat and the more exertion required to counter it.

Every sane human knew that World War Two was coming by 1933 at the latest. World War Two came anyway.

Human ability to shape human outcomes is negligible. Human ability to shape the planetary ecosystem (aside from self-extermination of humans) is nil.
