The 2007 Nobel Peace Prize goes to Al Gore and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, "for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change". Here is the website for the documentary "An Inconvenient Truth" and the website for the IPCC. There is also the Draft Gore campaign, and the Snopes.com search of Al Gore urban legends. The prize caps a year of highs for Gore, but "brace yourself for a hurricane of heated rhetoric". And check out RealClimate, "a commentary site on climate science by working climate scientists for the interested public and journalists".
