An inconvenient truth...
 
The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule. -H.L. Mencken, writer, editor, and critic (1880-1956)
 
Al Gore decided to hire a cheap songwriter to make a song for him to sing about global warming.
 
Unfortunately, the songwriter was notorious for stealing the theme and words from popular songs, and so it could not be used.

Al Gore - Cop of the World

Cop of the World
 
Such a feelin's comin' over me
There is blunder in most everything I see
There are those who de-ny
Got the sun in their eyes
And I won't be surprised if it's a scheme
 
Everything I feared the world would be
Is now coming true especially for me
And the reason is clear
It's because warm-ing's near
You're the nearest thing to pro-ven that I've seen
 
I'm self-made cop of the world preachin' for your sal-va-tion
And the only explanation I can find
(The) Cee-Oh-Two that I've found, ever since man's been around
Your gas set me as the cop of the world
 
All of those who've sinned have learned my name
And I'm tellin' you that things are not the same
In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze
There's a puzzlin' sense of un-easiness for me
 
There is only one wish on my mind
When this day is through I hope that I will find
That tomorrow will be a cooler day for you and me
All I need will be mine if this you hear:
 
I'm self-made cop of the world preachin' for your sal-va-tion
And the only explanation I can find
(The) Cee-Oh-Two that I've found, ever since man's been around
Your gas set me as the cop of the world 
 
I'm self-made cop of the world preachin' for your sal-va-tion
And the only explanation I can find
(The) Cee-Oh-Two that I've found, ever since man's been around
Your gas set me as the cop of the world 
 
"At present, however, the warming is taking a break," confirms meteorologist Mojib Latif of the Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences in the northern German city of Kiel. Latif, one of Germany's best-known climatologists, says that the temperature curve has reached a plateau. "There can be no argument about that," he says. "We have to face that fact."
