Al Gore as Captain Planet

Rorshach is dismissive and insulting to Gore before displaying a surprising lack of knowledge about science and engineering - re: his proposal for a sunshade over the Earth.

The only serious criticism of Al Gore's film is that there is not a mention of CO2 concentrations over a million years ago. That is understandable with the lack of continuous data and more than made up for by the record Gore brilliantly showed of the last 650,000 years.

Added - he is starting to make up for it in his comments but still hasn't really thought about the scale of the sunshades. Here is a good defense of the film from the attack by the science hack Easterbrook.
