Al Gore’s ecological footprint, another "inconvenient t

[Abandoned Ego]

I see that Al Gore, the guy who incredibly surrendered the 2000 US elections to fascist Bushco despite having more votes ( but less royal blood) , and who is currently advising all of us that the planet is in ruin, is up to their usual tricks.

POWER: GORE MANSION USES 20X AVERAGE HOUSEHOLD; CONSUMPTION INCREASES AFTER 'AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH'
Mon Feb 26 2007 17:16:14 ET

The Tennessee Center for Policy Research, an independent, nonprofit and nonpartisan research organization committed to achieving a freer, more prosperous Tennessee through free market policy solutions, issued a press release late Monday:

Last night, Al Gore’s global-warming documentary, An Inconvenient Truth, collected an Oscar for best documentary feature, but the Tennessee Center for Policy Research has found that Gore deserves a gold statue for hypocrisy.

Gore’s mansion, [20-room, eight-bathroom] located in the posh Belle Meade area of Nashville, consumes more electricity every month than the average American household uses in an entire year, according to the Nashville Electric Service (NES).

In his documentary, the former Vice President calls on Americans to conserve energy by reducing electricity consumption at home.

The average household in America consumes 10,656 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year, according to the Department of Energy. In 2006, Gore devoured nearly 221,000 kWh—more than 20 times the national average.

Last August alone, Gore burned through 22,619 kWh—guzzling more than twice the electricity in one month than an average American family uses in an entire year. As a result of his energy consumption, Gore’s average monthly electric bill topped $1,359.

Since the release of An Inconvenient Truth, Gore’s energy consumption has increased from an average of 16,200 kWh per month in 2005, to 18,400 kWh per month in 2006.

Gore’s extravagant energy use does not stop at his electric bill. Natural gas bills for Gore’s mansion and guest house averaged $1,080 per month last year.

“As the spokesman of choice for the global warming movement, Al Gore has to be willing to walk to walk, not just talk the talk, when it comes to home energy use,” said Tennessee Center for Policy Research President Drew Johnson.

In total, Gore paid nearly $30,000 in combined electricity and natural gas bills for his Nashville estate in 2006.

Either Niclole Williams is lying, or Gore is a hypocritical piece of faesces.

What's the other inconvenient truth?

Climate change is real. There is still uncertainty over its cause (although not according to the IPCC) but not over whether it is happening

Recently on BBC radio I have been hearing the term 'man-made global warming' being used. Nobody disputes that the climate is warming but when I hear phases like that it sets off my BS detector big time! All the propaganda makes you wonder if global warming is a Globalist psyop to get people to submit to authoritarianism.

Me too, I have been eco-conscious for years, I live frugally, haven't flown, ride a bike and recycle everything I can - voluntarily. But I can't help thinking that the place where all this is heading is non-stop surveillance with chips in the wheelie bins and cameras everywhere to make sure we are not breaking any environmental regulations - to save the 'planet' of course!

We've been lied to so much that maybe I'm just suffering from 'the government that cried wolf' syndrome...

Re Manufacturing

Lets stop with manufacturing lies.

Having said that, banning plastic will be in my manifesto for a leaderless revolution. Bring back glass I say. And releasing organo-halogens into the environment would be a hate crime punishable by repeated forced listening of Fiddler on the Roof.

[uselesseater]

What's different about the climate issure from all the other environmental problems is that it is a global problem which demands a global solution like a world government. Just like world wars, rouge asteroids, a global depression or a faked alien invasion.

Wether or not our CO2 is the main cause makes no difference to the reason why the establishment love this particular problem.

is a statement on its own which means nothing. Its like stating weather changes. We all know that the weather changes. The issue is whether what the say climate change causes and what should be done by it?
Showing pictures of a melting ice cap like showing a single picture of a 'mad cow' does not imply that the world is about to disingtegrate or we will all die from non-existent diseases.

If by climate change they start to tax everything for the BENEFIT of the super-rich then 'climate change' which is an existing condition as the climate changes daily, hourly every second of the day, is a justification for all and sundry.

I agree with the posters who state the manufacturers should start to produce things that last not products that collapse after 2-3 uses and it becomes the norm to throw things away instead of repairing them as we used to do.

I personally do not believe in global warming - but I do believe in climate change.

I have been listening to an interesting mp3 from here earlier today:

http://yowusa.com/planetx/

Interesting to hear things about how warmer the sun is here now, and the suns strength has been measured over the years by a group in Switerzerland.

I do suspect this, just like everything else:

WHO GAINS FROM THIS?

Another good resouce is:

Do not believe in the farce of global warming - it IS another tax on us. Soon we'll all be working for the 'one state' and not earning a penny for our own existence.

And of course broadband... If ıt stıll exısts...

[uselesseater]

Our consumer throw away society has been mentioned here quite a lot, where did it come from? According to Adam Curtis' excellent documentry 'the Century of the Self' it was created using sophistocated psycological advertising (Psy warfare more accurate i think) techniques developed be the father of PR Edward Bernays.

So next time somone tries to blame all the * on human nature as is the fashion these days, you can set them straight.
