After opening the Live Earth concert series in Sydney via live satellite feed, Al Gore launched Live Earth Tokyo this morning in a high-tech, virtual way – as a hologram.After a stirring introduction by Lumi, the virtual-reality singer of Genki Rockets, a head-to-toe-likeness of the former U.S. Vice President materialized on stage and shared urgent yet hopeful words to the crowd gathered at Makuhari Messe. The holographic Gore had an expression of amazement as he delivered the following words:
What an amazing world we live in – I love it that I can stand here on this stage in Tokyo and speak to you in holographic form. It is astounding that in just these recent few decades we have invented technologies that enable us to connect and instantly communicate our ideas and intentions with people on the other side of the globe.Because of the communication channels and technologies now available to us, this venue is, at this moment, connected to the entire world. You are all communicating to well over 2 billion people right now – including all the Live Earth audiences in Sydney, Shanghai, Johannesburg, Hamburg, London, Rio de Janeiro and New York and the broadcast audience who will be watching on television and the Internet in over 100 countries.
The human race is also connected by the climate crisis. It is a global problem that transcends boundaries, languages and cultures. The climate crisis will impact everyone, everywhere on Earth.
If we look at the Earth from space, it looks like a blue ball coated with a very thin layer of lacquer, within which the air, water, and living beings exist.

Rev 13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Perfect: all the bluster with no substance.
Al Bore invented the Internet.

They say holograms put at least 10 pounds on you.
They lie. More like 50.
Al Gore is a hologram...
That pic made me laugh out loud!!
Why isn't he visiting his son in rehab?
I still don’t get what a carbon offset is. I did find that I could, should I choose, use some company to purchase carbon offsets for my horrendous lifestyle. Just...not what the money’s for. But I could spend $16 a month doing it.
Nothing separates a liberal from their money faster than guilt and superiority over fellow humans.
With Algore, it would be a “hollowgram”.
Be nice. He’s a first cousin once removed of mine. Note, however, my side of the family are GOPers.
I'll volunteer to put the "H" on his head.
A wooden hologram? Wow.
I thought Al invented these technologies.
