Gore Nominated for Peace Prize

Al Gore nominated for Nobel Peace Prize

"A prerequisite for winning the Nobel Peace Prize is making a difference, and Al Gore has made a difference," Conservative Member of Parliament Boerge Brende, a former minister of environment and then of trade, told The Associated Press.

Brende said he joined political opponent Heidi Soerensen of the Socialist Left Party to nominate Gore as well as Canadian Inuit activist Sheila Watt-Cloutier before the nomination deadline expired Thursday.

For those who don't know, Sheila is the woman most directly behind the Inuit Circumpolar Council's petition to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, regarding the impact of global warming on the Inuit tribes of the Arctic.
