They don't cite any sources. So, who knows where they got their information from. It's a "think tank" so basically they just make shit up. Honestly, can you call the hydro company and ask "How much does Al Gore pay per month?". I don't think you can. Did they go rummaging through his garbage? Or just make up some numbers? No pictures of his mansions? Wouldn't want to show us solar paneling I guess.
TCPR are blatant liars too.

I'm just saying. Where is the hard evidence?
I just posted it above. Time magazine. He also said "I purchase Green Power [electricity from renewable sources]". So regardless of what his energy bills are, they are at least renewable sources.
ah, sorry, i didn't read the whole thread. but i thought i read it somewhere. thanks.
I think it's pretty obvious.
The cost of a dude's energy bill is not important. The truth probably is that "Green Energy" costs more than regular energy, as that's usually the case. My adobe isn't working though :(
What is important is how much CO2 he's pumping into the atmosphere. If they can know exactly what he spends on exactly what fuels, then I'm sure they can figure out approximately how much greenhouse gases he's spittin' out. But that's not their focus, their focus is on how much he spends on his energy.
I'm also highly skeptic of how they know how much energy he purchases. Not to mention I'm skeptic of any organization like this. They are almost always politically motivated. Birds of a feather flock together, you know.
If you check out their site, this is the only issue they are pushing. Yet in their "about" section they claim that politics isn't their focus, but rather their primary goal. Sounds like an oxymoron to me. The only other issue says something like voting in a democrat will put a halt to government spending and programs like Medicare wouldn't get passed by a republican congress. Sounds a lot like they are saying vote republican.
I haven't been to the zoo lately, but I do remember what monkey spankers do when logic stares them right in the face.

Honestly, I was a huge skeptic of Global Warming until last week when I watched An Inconvenient Truth. My brother lent it to me and swore it was really good, I wouldn't have rented it or gone to see it otherwise. I ended up watching it thinking it was just going to be a bunch of politics and shit. It turned out to represent actual data, real facts. There was some crap about Gore mixed in, which I wasn't a big fan of. Never-the-less the facts were there, the graphs he showed were almost identical to the one's I've already seen. He provided a lot more information on it than I'd ever come across though. Clearly he's spent a lot of time on it.
Everything about this guy tells me he is serious about the environment. He could be a jackass otherwise, but I have to be skeptical of claims that he doesn't believe what he says. At this point, I'm taking his word over some "think tank" that "does and doesn't" get involved politically. If someone can produce some evidence I'd be more willing to lean that direction.

San Francisco, California (PRWEB) December 27, 2005 -- Following news that Al Gore and wife Tipper have purchased a multimillion dollar condo at the new St. Regis highrise in San Francisco, well-heeled home buyers throughout the city are clamoring to join the neighborhood.
"Ever since people learned that Al and Tipper Gore were moving into the St. Regis, I've had three times as many inquiries about the place," says Damion Matthews, a realtor specializing in San Francisco's luxury condo market.

Do as I say, not as I do?
this must mean global warming isn't happening huh? maybe he's not practicing what he preaches....(although i'm sure a mansion is probably gonna use multiple times as much electricity and gas as an apartment)....but it has nothing to do w/ Global warming.... Duh!
-Big Fish
he never actually said that..about the internet...stop believeing everything you hear or read.
You're right..he just said "I took the initiative in creating the Internet". Huge difference there...
Also..I wonder if John Edward's new house is a good example of the two America's he's preaching about.
oh and Tara, my bestfriend is an environmental engineer. Say's it's bunk. Nothing more than nature at work.
By contrast, here is a mansion, this is Michael Jordan's

if he doesn't practise what he preaches tara, it makes him a hypocrite.
my entire yearly energy bill doesn't even add up to $2439.
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say
Man, I put in a few hours last night investigating this claim and came to the definite conclusion that Gore does not live in a mansion. Yes he lives in a multimillion dollar Condo at St. Regis in SF Cal. He said in an interview with Time Magazine that his power sources are Green Energy [renewable].
This is like total speculation of course. There is no cited source for this information at the TCPR web site. I couldn't find any information online about the St. Regis energy bills or the kind of power they use. So it's ultimately the TCPR's word against Gore's. The way I see it, the TCPR could just as well be a Republican think tank, as likely that Gore is a hypocrite. This supported by the fact that they blatantly lie about their affiliation with a Catholic organization.
I'd say the Jury is definitely hung on this issue and I won't be drawing any conclusions about Gore.
Forget it.
LMAO..are you serious? My God some of you will not believe anything.
He lives in a 20-room, eight-bathroom located Belle Meade area of Nashville. Who doesn't know this?
Prove it.
you think al gore has only one home? think dude. think.
oh yeah but he has an electricity bill that's higher than mine so f-ck him
idiots.....
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

Have you tried looking into it? Any idea how difficult it is to get to the bottom of this?
I got a news paper article from the tennessean from 2000 stating that he purchased a home in Belle Meade, but I have a Time article from 2005 stating he 'moved' to St. Regis in San Francisco.
But you know that's all irrelevant, because like I said, it's about carbon emissions not about $$$$
