Algore's carbon footprint.

LOL...from some poor 3rd world poor person who will NEVER be able to live the life of luxury Al has.....those 3rd worldies have ALL the "offsets!"
While I agree Gore is a lying hypocrite - I don't think we should be foc8ussing on his power consumption because it detracts from the real issue we should be going right to the root of the issue- that Gore is a freaking liar and his 'research' is total crap and a lie.
He has been allowed to foist his lie on the whole world uncontested except for in a few obscure blogs and newscasts, and this is the real sin- we're losing a VERY winnable war by not getting the truth of the issue made known- but alas- we'll never be able to get it known now because the global warming ball is rolling now, and there is nothign we can do to stop this disgusting lie- we've lost this war. We're all going to pay dearly for our innaction now. The 'carbon taxes' are already being enacted in some states, and businesses are already being penalized for their carbon emissions.
The U.N is going to be collecting trillions and trillions of our dollars for somethign that we will NEVER EVER be able to change no matter what we do.

And, can I re-sell that offset to someone else? If it is to be traded as a commodity it must have enduring value.
Why does this 'carbon offset' thingy remind me of Enron? Weren't they involved in a similar scam?
The forest is already in place - so the net effect is zero. The only way Gore could justify this is for him to purchase land with no vegetation and then plant trees.
You'll have to speak to Al about that. He says it counts.
Al, "BLATHERING BS" Gore.
Such spume as not to be believed.
When does Al Start his "Body Fat Exchange"???
Be aware that this exercise would also allow the government to identify an entire class of citizens that are "carbon offset poor". Americans might be required to purchase offsets (wealth re-distribution!) from the "forest-dwelling bark-munchers" of the moon bat fringe!
No. Mark-to-market is entirely different.
Actually it was the selling of indulgences not dispensations that got the Catholic Church in trouble a long, long time ago.
Carbon Credits- The Pet Rocks of 2007...
So basically even though Gore 'balances' his lifestyle with carbon credits, I and your average American still use less energy than him.
ASSHAT
Bigfoot Al pays parents of poor chil'ren to swelter in the heat in his place.
Al the Preacher endorses vicarious suffering as a means to save the People. ---And you thought he didn't learn anything before he dropped out of Seminary.
If a Dog wizzes on your offset tree, do you LOSE credits for that???
So, that means every month a company is planting a forest somewhere in Tennessee because of Algore???
Nothing more than a grab for the cash!
The U.N. crowd and Chirac are already talking about a "carbon tax."
It won't be long before the frauds of the legal community flood the courts with law suits to cash in on this "whiplash science"
You can't sell them... they're like food-stamps for the evironment.
