if all nations agree that global warming is beyond a political issue (though, lets be honest, it is), then yeah that could be seen as that
but indeed its a tricky one but it wouldnt be the first time the nobel peace prize is awarded because of a work of art (in the broader sense: movies, books, etc) -

"because he said, "the glaciers are melting" "
No, no, no! That's not it. It's because he said, "the planet has a fever".
This guy is running a ponzie scheme and I think people are finally waking up to that fact. -

Hey, but Menachem Begin did actually make peace with Egypt so I think that washed a little of the blood off his hands (just a little).

Why do the 'Oil' Companies get away with Price Gouging(1), Collusion(2), and Technology Suppression(3)? All of which are Illegal "LAST TIME I CHECKED". Why haven't We done anything about it? Because we can afford itBecause we have become a Nation of ostriches? At least He, in a position to do so Does, where as we as a whole pick our nose and say 'WHY SHOULD HE GET A NOBEL PEACE PRIZE FOR TRYING TO EDUCATE THE MASSES' wheres the "strategery" in that?

I'm no fan of Gore, its easy to point out he's a phony. And it can be fairly debated whether he deserved the Nobel Prize.
But bringing the issue of Global Warming to a discussion is fully within the paramaeters for which to consider for awarding the Nobel Peace Prize. This does meet the qualification of working for the fraternity between nations. It is irefutable that the earth is warming and that man is playing a role in that warming with much higher atomospheric CO2 over the last 250 years. This is going to lay the foundations for potential future wars and armed conflicts. -

Should Al Gore deserve the Nobel Prize Peace Prize. Conceder two other people who were nominated. One was a Buddhist monk who is using passive resistence to bring democracy to Burma or what ever the thugs in the military dictatorship, that currently runs that nation, are calling it now. The other was a Polish women, now in her ninties, who saved thousands of Jewish children from the Nazis, during World War Two, by placing them with Catholic families. She kept the secret, of where she placed the children, even when she was picked up by the SS and tortured, and did everthing she could, after the war, to make sure they were reunited with whatever was left of their families. Either one of these people deserved the Nobel Peace Prize more the Al Gore.
