So far, so good. So, where does Gore buy his ‘carbon offsets’? According to The Tennessean newspaper’s report, Gore buys his carbon offsets through Generation Investment Management. a company he co-founded and serves as chairman:

As co-founder and chairman of the firm Gore 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.

So is algore going to turn these Hypocredits into a $Billion?? That makes his movie Incoherent Lies into an infomercial!

Might be a growing problem for us, but, pardon my boldness, but I think theirs is a shrinking problem.

Buying "carbon credits" in order to be "carbon neutral" is the heart of the global warming campaign.

It is the means by which these people plan to introduce global redistribution of wealth. (By obliging Americans individually or corporately to purchase "credits" from backwards nations)

Mark my words -- THIS is what it is all about.

Rush was all over the buying and selling of so called Carbon Credits when Gore is a major player in the company selling these so called credits.

What's funny is algore's carbon offset LLC website doesn't even have a section for us to buy any offsets. What is that all about?

Maybe there's a secret password or handshake?

"1) No mention of the phrase "Corrolation does not necessarily mean causation." in connection with his temperature and CO2 chart comparison. "

I read an article lately that said the corrolation shows that changes in temperature occur before changes in CO2 occur. If this is true, I don't see how changes in CO2 can be causing changes in temperature.

It's his PRIVATE stash!! It's a SCAM...S C A M !!!! Should be looked into by the IRS also!! He's getting TAX BREAKS for these Offsets!!!

[Seadog Bytes]

True... but, unfortunately, just when you'd think we might FINALLY be RID of them... they just seem to keep popping back up in our faces...

This is why algore need never be our President. He's simply unteachable. The man is how old? And how long has he been in politics? He still can't even pull a fast slick willy on us. He always thinks he's done or discovered something amazing when in fact, it's never been even near the truth nor the whole truth. Algore is a big old blast of hot air.

[Suzy Quzy]

scam ping!

[Seadog Bytes]

I have no doubt that you are correct.

[Seadog Bytes]

Yes, indeed he was. I really didn't THINK algore was doing any of this global BS dance, or anything ELSE, for that matter, for *OUR* benefit.
