ANNABEL CRABB, PRESENTER: As the fires continue burning, former United States Vice President and Nobel Prize-winning climate change activist Al Gore has bought into the debate over the link between global warming and bushfires.
AL GORE: I don't think it's a commercial conspiracy, I think it's a political fact of life. It certainly is in my country. In the United States, our democracy has been hacked.

And the energy companies Online Cigarettes Free Shipping, coal companies and oil companies particularly, have prevented the Congress of the United States from doing anything meaningful so far to stop the climate crisis.

And by the way, the price needs to be at a level that's effective and you can give the money right back to the people if you want, but we need to have the market send accurate signals so that we get the encouragement for the renewable systems of energy that are becoming cheaper all the time, by the way Cigarette Tobacco For Sale Online. Wind energy, for example, in Australia is now very competitive with electricity-based on coal. And all around the world, electricity from solar energy is becoming competitive with coal-based electricity.
