[FoxNews] Global warming activist and former veep Al Gore likened the battle over climate change to humanity's greatest struggles -- like the fights against slavery, apartheid and nuclear proliferation -- during a speech Thursday in Australia, according to a newly reported transcript.

In a July 13 speech to the EcoCity World Summit in Melbourne, the former vice president argued combating global warming was "in the tradition of all the great moral causes that have improved the circumstances of humanity throughout our history," according to the website Climate Depot.

"The abolition of slavery, woman's suffrage and women's rights, the civil rights movement and the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa, the movement to stop the toxic phase of nuclear arms race and more recently the gay rights movement," Gore said.

Al Gore became a billionaire because of climate change and carbon trading. He is just trying to protect his income stream.

It's winter in Australia at the moment. Did it snow while he was there?
