When the Christian Science Monitor recently declared Al Gore “the Rachel Carson of global warming,” the former vice president must have bubbled over with pride. There is, it seems, no higher compliment one can bestow on an environmentalist.

Next month marks what would have been Carson’s 100th birthday, and festivities abound. The author of “Silent Spring”—the 1962 book that birthed modern environmentalism and made “DDT” a dirty word—Carson is the subject of an exhibit at the National Archives and the star of its Environmental Film Festival this year.

In Gamble, Calif. Tries to Curb Greenhouse Gases

In the Rocky Mountain States and the fast-growing desert Southwest, more than 20 power plants, designed to burn coal that is plentiful and cheap, are on the drawing boards. Much of the power, their owners expected, would be destined for the people of California.But such plants would also be among the country’s most potent producers of carbon dioxide, the king of gases linked to global warming. So California has just delivered a new message to these energy suppliers: If you cannot produce power with the lowest possible emissions of these greenhouse gases, we are not interested.

Gore isn’t quite as green as he’s led the world to believe

Al Gore has spoken: The world must embrace a “carbon-neutral lifestyle.” To do otherwise, he says, will result in a cataclysmic catastrophe. “Humanity is sitting on a ticking time bomb,” warns the website for his film, An Inconvenient Truth. “We have just 10 years to avert a major catastrophe that could send our entire planet into a tailspin.” But if Al Gore is the world’s role model for ecology, the planet is doomed.
