He won once?
Gore may have a view on environmentalism, but he does not change his own lifestyle to actually live more eco-friendly. He and Tipper live in two properties: a 10,000-square-foot, 20-room, eight-bathroom home in Nashville, and a 4,000-square-foot home in Arlington, Va. 10,000 sq ft for 2 people? 8 bathrooms? In both Tennessee and Virginia, utility companies offer wind energy as an alternative to traditional energy for a few extra pennies per kilowatt hour. However, Gore has not signed up to use green energy in either of his residences. Gore also has large stock holdings in Occidental (Oxy) Petroleum. "As executor of his family's trust, over the years Gore has controlled hundreds of thousands of dollars in Oxy stock. Oxy has been mired in controversy over oil drilling in ecologically sensitive areas." He flies around in the private corporate jet to promote his movie... all while burning up precious resources and contriibuting to the devestating carbon emiisions. Not exactly practicing what he preaches. Bush's Crawford ranch is more eco-friendly than Gore's Nashville mansion.
No, I'm not a Bush lover. I just think Gore is completely fake.
