Pope Gore I and His Indulgences
Al Gore founded the company through which he purchases carbon offsets. Not only that, but his carbon offset certificates are actually stock certificates. They make him a profit, and they make him a profit when other people actually buy into his bullcrap.

This is a classic pyramid scheme, where nothing is actually created, and the first in get rich over the suckers in later. Woody’s got a new twist on it though, by claiming it makes him holy.

Carbon Offsets/The Ultimate Hypocrisy
Al Gore's spouting this global warming thing just to line his own pockets!
http://www.ecotality.com/blog/?p=350
Gore buys his carbon offsets through Generation Investment Management. a company he co-founded and serves as chairman:
Gore helped found Generation Investment Management, through which he and others pay for offsets. The firm invests the money in solar, wind and other projects that reduce energy consumption around the globe…
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.

Carbon Offsets/The Ultimate Hypocrisy
I've been hearing that Al Gore has himself invested in a Carbon offset company. If that's true, isn't he efforts against "global warming" even more suspect? Getting people to pay him for carbon offsets, which in reality do absolutely nothing, seems alittle ridiculous.

Looks like I was right

So Gore promotes global warming. To avoid accusations hypocrisy he "buys" carbon offsets and encourages others to as well. Yet, he doesn't mention he owns the company that is selling the carbon offsets.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:
Gore helped found Generation Investment Management, through which he and others pay for offsets. The firm invests the money in solar, wind and other projects that reduce energy consumption around the globe…

So essentially he is profiting personally by convincing others that global warming is a problem and convincing people to give him money for essentially doing absolutely nothing.

Can we say SCAM.
No wonder he's out spouting about global warming, he is out to make a big profit off of all of it.

I've read where some people feel the Bore should be investigated for this scheme...
Just think this swindler could of been our President....
This is what he's saying to all you folks who voted for him....
"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself."

From looking at Al recently, I'd say he's got his finger on a breakthrough weight-gain formula.

My understanding is that this particular company only sells to Al. In essense, he is buying his own stock.
