Jon Stewart interviewed Al Gore on The Daily Show. Here's the extrended interview

Although comedian Stephen Colbert later quipped that there was no "Al-Gore-rhythm", Jon Stewart's interview with Al Gore makes for interesting watching.

Although Jon Stewart (and his team of genius writers) can be spectacularly incisive while being generally hilarious, he's never been very good at global warming—even prompting speculation that he's a climate sceptic. That's been an enormous shame, given that nearly one-third of young Americans get their news from satirical programmes like The Daily Show rather than from a traditional news network.

But he seems to be getting on top of it now, and his interview with Gore neatly sums up so much public sentiment on climate change: Why won't they make it easy for us to change? Here's the interview in two parts:
