Gore helped found Generation Investment Management, through which he and others pay for offsets. The firm invests the money in solar, wind and other projects that reduce energy consumption around the globe, she said...
Gore is chairman of the firm and, presumably, draws an income or will make money as its investments prosper. In other words, he "buys" his "carbon offsets" from himself, through a transaction designed to boost his own investments and return a profit to himself. To be blunt, Gore doesn't buy "carbon offsets" through Generation Investment Management - he buys stocks.

Global Warming got you all heated up. Well my friend you need the New and Improved Al Gore Ice Age, just for men.
This revolutionary new treatment disregards millions of years of prior global warming and ice ages, and puts man at the center. Yes, you to, can be a part of the Al Gore Warming Trend, (just for men), become the Man that actually is the center of the universe that you always wanted to be in just seconds.

Since when is being a capitalist a bad thing in America? One of the arguments Gore & Clinton have made is that green is good for the economy. Bush and the right are the only ones who think America can't compete. I don't get it. Actually, I do get it (the conflict that is) See, the right has taken tons of money from big oil, and big oil does not like green energy. It is that simple. Other countries are already developing green technology that we will wind up having to buy from them.

My advise to others, listen not to what a man says, rather watch he actually does. If Al Gore is frightening you about global warming take my advice. If you see him boarding up his big house, if you see him park his private jet, if you see him carpooling, head for the hills! Otherwise, do not take anything he claims too seriously.
Imagine how much more information about global warming he has than you have. If he is still living carbon large, he must feel pretty comfortable doing so. This being the obvious case, do you think he is being truthful or not?

No.
He is also not a "National Embarrassment", as you call him.
Most of the world likes and admires Gore, unlike our current President.
That fact should be an embarrassment to The USA.
Teddy Roosevelt is rolling in his grave due to the Republicans failing to care for the environment.

Do you mean, as I fly my FA across the country, in a private jet, take a limo to an extreme energy consuming event, to pick up an award made from processed metal, chemically enhanced to appear gold, to earn mega-credits for doing so because I mention the term, "global warming"? Nahhh? It's just Al being "Al".

Apparently neocons are all for "free enterprise" and private investment unless it's a Democrat who becomes an entrepreneur. Hypocrites!

Al Gore is proof that fat Americans can still make movies. And that's about it.
