Al Gore, Your Climate Change Bartender

By Kleinheider Posted on September 8, 2008 at 12:47 pm

Al Gore points out that our mistreatment of the earth may cause mudslides:

“Mudslides often follow big fires as part of a natural process that has gone on for millennia in the West. But forestry experts are increasingly concerned about a noticeable upswing in torrential downpours in California that threatens to send even more mud and debris cascading into downstream communities.

The most likely culprit, scientists and other experts say, is climate change. Increased downpours are consistent with the predicted impacts of global warming, as higher temperatures cause more ocean water to evaporate, making for stronger storms.”
