Climate change skeptics are not unique to the United States, but they do seem to find more receptive ears on their home turf. Nobel Prize winner and former U.S. Vice President Al Gore, while appearing on a segment for MSNBC’s The Rachel Maddow Show, did not show much concern for these vocal climate change naysayers. Mr. Gore also gave his views on the domestic expansion of nuclear power, subsidies and nuclear weapons proliferation.

Another environmental news snippet from Rachel Maddow is a novel effort by the coal industry in West Virginia to get kids to like coal. But seriously, what kid doesn’t already love coal? I know I always anticipated a lump in my Christmas stocking – and was rarely disappointed. Thanks, Mom and Dad.
