Al Gore, Roger Revelle, Maurice Strong, UN IPCC Origins
The historical origins of the global warming movement are traced back to Roger Revelle's 1957 paper on CO2. Al Gore, a student of Revelle at Harvard, is credited with turning the research into a political campaign. Maurice Strong is identified as the UN bureaucrat who leveraged the movement to establish the IPCC in 1972, with the ultimate goal of global governance and carbon trading.
