WE WILL CREATE GREEN NEW DEAL, SAYS GORE

(The Guardian, 3-14-09)

. . .Gore is in the capital, as he is every few months, to spend a couple of days meeting with his partners at Generation Investment Management, the “sustainability-driven” asset management firm he set up in 2004 with David Blood, who, as the former chief executive of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, once managed investments worth $325bn (£232bn). As is the case everywhere, the numbers are somewhat smaller these days, but the firm they both wanted to call Blood and Gore (sadly, it was overruled by the rest of the board) still manages a pot of investments worth billions, according to Blood. . .

“”Gore says that, since the election of Barack Obama last November, he feels much more bullish about the chances of political progress in tackling climate change.””

"...the firm they both wanted to call Blood and Gore (sadly, it was overruled by the rest of the board)..."

Unbelievable. It would have been a more fitting name for their "company", considering the massive piracy they intended to engage in.
