Gore Shares Peace Prize With IPCC

Now that former Vice President Al Gore has won the Nobel Peace Prize for campaigning against global warming, many people want him to run for presidency again.

• He shared the award yesterday with the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The IPCC provides assessments and information on climate change. They have published several scientific reports, some of which are available free.

• The IPCC is currently finalizing its 4th assessment report “Climate Change 2007”. The report includes six years of work from 2,500 expert scientific reviewers and over 800 contributing authors.

Gore would probably do well in politics after winning both a Peace Prize and an Oscar. He won the Oscar after starring in the documentary on global warming “An Inconvenient Truth.” However, Gore does not seem to have any plans to run as a candidate against anyone so far and seems to be content campaigning against global warming.
