Gore, IPCC share peace prize

the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (ipcc), headed by R K Pachauri, and the former us vice-president, Al Gore. Their achievement, said the Nobel Committee in Oslo, is international action on climate change before it gets out of mankind's control.

The award to Al Gore came in the same week when a court in the uk declared parts of his film An Inconvenient Truth to be scientifically inaccurate.
