The Tennessee Center for Policy Research reports that "in the year since Al Gore took steps to make his home more energy-efficient, the former Vice President’s home energy use surged more than 10%...In the past year, Gore’s home burned through 213,210 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity, enough to power 232 average American households for a month. ...Since taking steps to make his home more environmentally-friendly last June, Gore devours an average of 17,768 kWh per month –1,638 kWh more energy per month than before the renovations – at a cost of $16,533. By comparison, the average American household consumes 11,040 kWh in an entire year, according to the Energy Information Administration."
I guess when your the official planetary prophet of doom you only need watch out for everyone elses "carbon footprints." I guess the hot air Gore emits has little effect on his own behavior. Gore was a hypocrite last year, but he is even more of a hypocrite this year. Amazing, isn't it?
