Well I'm happy to hear your thoughts on this one Mrs kk. When I watched the film I mentioned earlier, I was really surprised at how he's been plugging away at environmental issues all throughout his political career. That puts him very very high up in my estimates of him. Its such a shame he didn't get in. Sigh. Well the thing is, perhaps even if Gore had got in, people in the US might not be ready to change the way they live too much. You know, the US has the most gas consuming cars around - I doubt people would be willing to give up their massive cars? I mean, here in Europe are cars are tiny in comparison to US ones....

Anyway Mr Gore made a point about this - that the car makers who are producing environmentally sound cars are on the up (Toyota, Nissan, Honda etc) and the ones who are producing the gas guzzlers are down (Ford, general motors). And can you believe Ford etc sued the state of california because california wanted to bring in laws about the energy efficiency of their cars?!

Anyway.
