add to cart   close window

The author of the article posits that fear of greenhouse gas emission, fostered by leader Al Gore, has enabled the nuclear power industry to revitalize itself. The author quotes from several of Gore's militaristic speeches in which he puts down nuclear unilateralism. The author also points out that implementation of the Kyoto Accords would cause economic devastation in the Third World, and that Green Revolution creator Norman Borlaug is the most guilty of all Nobel Peace Prize winners.
