I keep forgetting Al Gore is still kicking around.
Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
Human Gore is long gone. This is AI Gore, it says so in the title.
Will someone remind Al that there’s too much profit to be made to stop now?
Reminder, Al Gore has made a shit load of money talking about how humans have fucked the environment. He has also used that money to buy houses that consume more energy than a city block, and flies around the globe for talks weekly, causing more emissions while making money off taking bad about people who destroy the planet.
So he’s well aware, great!
Um that is way off. Most of his money including to buy houses come from his wife.
He has a personal fortune of $300 million+, and gets paid roughly $100k per speaking engagement or appearance. If his wife makes more money than him then their household wealth is rubbing close to the billion mark.
Sounds like a real every man, environmental hero...
yeah she is some candy heiress. can't recall which one
I mean, we'll never do it under capitalism, Gore. So you good with dismantling capitalism?
(Crickets, I'm sure.)
decentralize governance, fediverse style. Senate my ass.
