Al Gore Compares Climate Deniers To 20th Century Racists | Former Vice President Al Gore said today’s climate change deniers are like those who opposed the Civil Rights movement during the 20th century in an interview with Alex Bogusky of the Climate Reality Project, and noted that like race, the topic has become considered taboo for people in the middle who should be standing up for science to discuss:

“There came a time when racist comments would come up in the course of the conversation and in years past they were just natural. Then there came a time when people would say, ‘Hey, man why do you talk that way, I mean that is wrong. I don’t go for that so don’t talk that way around me. I just don’t believe that.’ That happened in millions of conversations and slowly the conversation was won.”
