Al Gore ignored "Earth Hour"  

Ted You just do not understand. He is different from the rest of us. He was probably working on a very important speech for a program to blame the flooding in Fargo ND on Global warming because if we were in the Ice Age Fargo would not have a flood problem.

He is too important to follow the same rules as us, just like the Obama Cabinet.

Well, you know, he partially participated, lol. I heard he does have green energy for his house, maybe he used that as an excuse. You know, only turning off half the lights plus green energy for the rest, would equal to others turning off all lights....

Nah, just grasping for straws there. As I said before, I don't quite buy the Global Warming deal, but I do support the movement for the reason that it does create a cleaner and nicer environment to live in. And alternative and renewable energy sources should be sought out now rather than when we know for sure that depletion of our current sources is just a couple of years away.

Al Gore simply has found his niche and gold mine promoting this. Hasn't he been caught not following the rules before? I don't think he quite believes in it either, but a cash cow is a cash cow.

Well how 'bout that? me 'n' Al finally did the same thing at the same time!!

Mind you, I made no concerted effort either way to save or use electricity. And I am not rich like Al baby who makes millions in speaking tours telling folks how we are ruining our planet with CO2 either.

Maybe if I get elected in May, I can fall back on notoriety as a source of income.

That might be nice. A career in talk radio maybe?

Well personally I think he's a bit hypocritical! he has no worth excuse, what's wrong with using candles like the rest of us? It was only for an hour after all! That's what's wrong with the world today, too many people sit back and let others do the work. I sat with just my T.V on for an hour and a half and was glad to be savign energy, even although it was only a little... every little helps. Any idea on how much power they saved? maybe too early to tell

Alice :)

LOL that's rich....He can jump on his private jet and fly around the world explaining why did didn't turn off his lights.

As for me, out of spite I turned on all the lights in my house during "earth hour".

Mr.AlGore came to country last year, i think, to speak about 'Global warming'..
seems 'funny' that he didnt fully participate in global event such as this..
it is as though he doesnt think that it is a good method to promote awareness or support to fight global warming..

Lol, figures.

Well; it is difficult to anticipate why Al Gore did not get much involved in
the Earth Hour activities.

We can only keep our fingers crossed and just make a guess as to why
is this the case .

May be he was busy with a lot of activities ,other than this .

He's the same big fat hypocrite he's always been, only fatter now.
