Al Gore Compares Climate Crisis to Nuclear Armageddon: Fear-Mongering at Its Finest?

Al Gore: The "climate crisis" is a "global crisis unlike any we have ever faced."

"At the height of the nuclear arms race, we faced a similar magnitude of threat to the future of humanity."

"We're using [the atmosphere] as an open sewer for 175 million tonnes of global warming pollution spewed into it every single day... and the concentration now traps as much extra heat as would be released by 750,000 first-generation atomic bombs."
