At today's Senate testimony about the climate, exVP Gore was presented with, what is in essence, the "rich guy's energy pledge" by Senator Inhofe, pledging to use no more energy in his residence than the average American household. Gore declined.http://technocrat.net/d/2007/3/21/16579
3/21/2007 11:58:59 PM
lets see how all of Gore's sheep defend him this time
3/22/2007 9:12:58 AM
The four-bedroom home was planned so that "every room has a relationship with something in the landscape that's different from the room next door. Each of the rooms feels like a slightly different place." The resulting single-story house is a paragon of environmental planning.The passive-solar house is built of honey-colored native limestone and positioned to absorb winter sunlight, warming the interior walkways and walls of the 4,000-square-foot residence. Geothermal heat pumps circulate water through pipes buried 300 feet deep in the ground. These waters pass through a heat exchange system that keeps the home warm in winter and cool in summer. A 25,000-gallon underground cistern collects rainwater gathered from roof urns; wastewater from sinks, toilets, and showers cascades into underground purifying tanks and is also funneled into the cistern. The water from the cistern is then used to irrigate the landscaping around the four-bedroom home, (which) uses indigenous grasses, shrubs, and flowers to complete the exterior treatment of the home. In addition to its minimal environmental impact, the look and layout of the house reflect one of the paramount priorities: relaxation. A spacious 10-foot porch wraps completely around the residence and beckons the family outdoors. With few hallways to speak of, family and guests make their way from room to room either directly or by way of the porch. "The house doesn't hold you in. Where the porch ends there is grass. There is no step-up at all." This house consumes 25% of the energy of an average American home. (Source: Cowboys and Indians Magazine, Oct. 2002 and Chicago Tribune April 2001.)That home belongs to George and Laura Bush in Crawford, Texas.That shit pisses me off. Gore could do that.

^Way to give Bush a boost at Gore's expense...I'm sure thats what you were going for
3/22/2007 9:29:17 AM
that shit just pisses me the fuck off. Bush doesn't go around parading around urging the masses to buy the water treatment utilities that he has... he doesn't have this self-righteous attitude that Gore does. The plain and simple fact is that Gore is unwilling to do what he wants others to do.Besides, planting trees could take a good 50 years to produce the amount of carbon offset that you release today. That whole concept is completely retarded.
3/22/2007 9:29:59 AM
To play a mild bit of devils advocate though, this could be a "dumb luck" situation in regards to pro-green stuff.It's entirely likely the cost of these systems versus the alternatives were a no-brainer and that is why they were chosen, not specifically because they are green.
3/22/2007 9:35:51 AM
if he does it it's because of financial reasonsif gore does (more like, doesn't do it) it's because he cares about the enviromentif we're really facing the crisis that he claims, why does he pollutehe should build a bunker, hide in it, and send out videos or webcasts
3/22/2007 9:38:22 AM
So what if Bush did it by accident? So the fuck what? It's eco friendly. Gore is not eco friendly at all... but he parades around on his high horse telling us that we're destroying the environment.
3/22/2007 9:39:45 AM
3/22/2007 9:40:57 AM
it's just a scam to get people to invest in the little "carbon offset company" that he and his communist buddy created

this thread is about gore you bald retardsounds like your little world is shaken up by the fact that Bush lives more environmentally conscious than loud mouthed Al Gore]
3/22/2007 9:44:57 AM
I'm just combating your inane "accident" comment. It was a retarded thing to say. If George Bush lives eco friendly by accident, the Al Gore lives eco unfriendly on purpose.That's even more telling.
3/22/2007 10:07:23 AM
No, you clearly didn't get the point I was trying to make.That is, laud Bush all you want to, but it is entirely likely he ended up green because it was financially feasible to do so. The same behavior every other non green American would exhibit.This isn't to disparage him, or to take away from any hypocrisy you think Gore might have. It was just a statement.When will you soap box hacks actually start being a bit level headed with your postings here and stop trying to twist every comment into a spark for whatever lame flame war it is you want to have in here.
3/22/2007 10:15:03 AM

3/22/2007 10:16:06 AM
1. This thread is about Gore2. Gore does not live eco friendly3. He buys these "offsets" which are bullshit.4. I raise evidence showing that even oil loving George Bush lives eco friendly.5. You deride Bush for falling into a "dumb luck" situation6. I say that it is telling that Bush chooses to live eco friendly while Gore purposefully chooses not to7. You call me hot headed.
3/22/2007 10:17:24 AM
Well, I clearly am calling you a hothead, especially when you use this kind terminology
3/22/2007 10:25:33 AM
I was giving a timeline of the entire thread.Everyone says that everything that happens to Bush is not out of his merit alone but out of luck.What I am saying is, debating your "little bit of devil's advocate," it doesn't matter if Bush did it by accident or not. That should not have even been debated here. That is clearly off topic all together.
3/22/2007 10:29:16 AM
3/22/2007 10:31:19 AM
yes the reason why George Bush is eco friendly should not be debated. THe fact that George Bush is eco friendly and Al Gore is not is relevant to this thread. This is about Al Gore's reasons for not being eco friendly.

3/22/2007 10:37:02 AM
You can't make a comment like that and then not discuss it's merits. Sorry. The Soap Box doesn't work that way (thanks mostly to TrollTwista).
3/22/2007 10:38:38 AM
Maybe not, but my ultimate point is, to consider your point about George Bush, is that it shouldn't matter his reasons. It's an unfair standard.Bush does it by accident, but we're trolling when we deride Gore for purposefully living non eco friendly.
3/22/2007 10:42:58 AM
However, it is no surprise that Bush is an outdoorsman. He loves the outdoors and respects nature... something I don't see Gore ever doing.
