Is Gore Faking It?
Filed in archive Current News on February 28, 2007
I saw this article today about a group questioning former US Vice President and recent Oscar awardee Al Gore's energy bills. Shouting hypocrite! the group said that Gore's Belle Meade home is using too much juice. He paid $1200 per month on energy bills.
But an examination of his bills reportedly showed Gore purchasing 108 green power blocks, paying more for purchasing power from solar and other renewable energy resources. Gore's camp further added that the proponent and lead star of An Inconvenient Truth used CFLs, solar paneled windows, and a hybrid Lexis. Plus they off-set their carbon emissions.
An attack on Gore's environmental reputation brings nothing good at this point. It may prove a point though, that the bigger the person, the bigger the responsibility. But aren't we all sharing the same responsibility of keeping this planet livable? Think about that.
