If former Vice President Al Gore had his way, denying global warming would carry repercussions.
Speaking at the South by Southwest technology conference in Austin, Texas, Gore called climate change “accepted science," and said that government officials who continue to deny it should pay a "price."

"We need to put a price on carbon to accelerate these market trends,” Gore said, referring to a proposed federal cap-and-trade system that would penalize companies that exceeded their carbon-emission limits. “And in order to do that, we need to put a price on denial in politics."
