What Gore says: Global Warming is real and that CO2 emissions are the cause therefore we must reduce CO2 emissions, because CO2 emission are causing global warming.

This report says: Al Gore uses a large amount of electricity.

Fact: It's true, he does use a lot of electricity.

Common sense and knowledge:

CO2 emissions are not directly related to electrical consumption. Since he pays extra for non-CO2 producing electricity, he could leave every light on in his house and still not violate his message that CO2 emissions cause global warming and we should reduce CO2 emissions.

His heating bill is high too, is that because he lives in an area with higher GAS rates or consumes more. If he heated his house with low efficiency renewable wood, he'd contribute more CO2 to the environment. He doesn't.

Once again, the end goal is not to reduce total energy consumption, but to reduce CO2 emissions. Reduce CO2 emissions. Reduce CO2 emissions. Got that?

Why? Let me reiterate: because CO2 emission are causing global warming.
