Better Gore personally than all of climate change
In a sense, that is a good thing. You can believe that Al Gore is personally the devil incarnate while also believing that climate change is a real problem on which we must take action.
Having the energy of deniers directed into ad hominem attacks against one man - albeit one who has done a huge amount to promote sound thinking on climate - isn't a terrible outcome.
