I wonder if Obama will create a new cabinet position for Gore? I’m sure he could find a staff, as you can now get a degree in Global Warming from the University of Mumbai.

FLINT, Mich. – Former Vice President Al Gore will appear in Detroit tonight for his debut campaign appearance with Senator Barack Obama, extending an endorsement and urging all Democrats to rally behind the party’s fall ticket.
“A few hours from now I will step on stage in Detroit, Michigan to announce my support for Senator Barack Obama,” Mr. Gore said in an e-mail sent to his supporters. “From now through Election Day, I intend to do whatever I can to make sure he is elected President of the United States.”

Fossil fuel will be around in a thousand years, but who will be able to afford it? “Exhaustion” is a relative term based on cost. Many are struggling to pay the increased gas cost they’ve had to pay to get to work lately. In my area gasoline went up 33% in 16 weeks. Granted, that’s an aberration, but the trend is clear (unless and until demand is reduced). Costs are rising, and substitutes aren’t ready or sufficient yet.
As any system is pushed near capacity its resilience and ability to recover from changes are reduced. How much of a problem with food or water supplies does it take for a city like Mexico City or Karachi to become a humanitarian disaster?
Personally, I’d rather see humanity become smart enough to limit its numbers and live a lot more efficiently before things get too bad. Education and family planning, and economic assistance that mandates ecologically responsible courses of action, are needed, IMHO.
