Le climat et la paix

The newspaper Le Monde has an unsigned editorial on the relationship between global warming and social instability, even warfare. The spin in the US-voter targeted media outlets is overwhelmingly prize-as-politics, but out in the real world where adults read Le Monde and Le Monde Diplo, that narrative is absent, and the prize award is a reflection of outright concern.

Update: Le Monde has published a surprisingly long overview of Al's work since Bush v Gore was decided by the Rehnquist Court on December 12th, 2000, and some background as well. The OpEd is here: Al Gore, un révolutionnaire très convenable.
