I think it's great that he received it and his work regarding global warming is something I respect. I don't mean science fiction as works of bad literature and worse internal consistency.
Still, as I understand it, he received the Prize for educating people about global warming so the world's people can do something about. This will reduce water scarcity in the future. More water available to more people will reduce wars fought over this resource.
Al Gore has won the Peace Prize for reducing conflict in the future - how cool is that?

It was a great accomplishment. I'm surprised at how many people still deny global warming's happening and that human beings have something to do with it. Even the Bush administration recently said that acknowledge warming and its human causes. . . . BTW, I've added a link to you over at Swerve Left. I used to teach in Sokcho and in Chunchon.
I'll visit your site, if I can find it. clicking on your name is a dead end.
