As everyone knows, WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE FROM GLOBAL WARMING. What you might not know is that in the process, you can do something for an unfortunate soul who could really use your help. Namely, Al Gore!
Al is the chairman of Generation Investment Management, a company that… er… I’ll let them tell it:
Generation has built a global research platform to integrate sustainability research into fundamental equity analysis. We focus on the economic, environmental, social, and governance risks and opportunities that can materially affect a company’s ability to sustain profitability and deliver returns. Our research plays an important role in forming our views on the quality of the business, the quality of management, and valuation.
Exactly! And as part of all that, uh, stuff, GIM has just bought a $13 million stake in Camco International Ltd. And what do they do? They sell carbon offsets. You know, the things we’re all supposed to buy to make up for, say, flying all over the world in private jets and owning mansions that use 20 times more energy than the national average. Carbon offsets = Healed planet. Yay!
Now, some people want you to believe that Al Gore is “spreading global warming hysteria to benefit his own wallet.” Nothing could be further from the truth. He is selflessly devoted to saving our dying planet. He’s saving us from ourselves! And hey, if a few dollars happen to fall into his pocket here and there, is that so wrong? What have you got against an average joe just trying to make a living? Shame on you. I’ll bet you haven’t bought a single carbon offset today, have you? Tsk, tsk.
(Hat tip to all the Deceiver readers who sent this in)
My faucets are running a few hours longer than normal to celebrate that fat bastard.
I love their mission statement. What is that written in Chinese? It’s funny when liberalism, and capitalism collide. And what’s wrong with flying around in private jets? I always take two. One for me, and one for my many tiaras, and my bowling ball collection. Think my life is easy? YOU try carrying 66 bowling balls through the airport.
Who offsets the heat emitted from his ginormous pie-hole? My grandfather’s best friend was blind his whole life, and he had a favorite saying that I think applies to Al Gore (and pretty much all global warming fear mongers): “I trust everyone - but you bet your ass I’m not gonna ask the guy selling umbrellas in the lobby if it looks like rain.”
Is anybody buying Al Gore, cousin to George W. Bush, descended from European Royalty…?
This in itself should ring many alarm bells… except in the gullible United States of America!
What is it with you people? The inconvenient truth is that Al Gore is a set-up all by himself! Part of the ‘hidden’ clique that believe they run the world. Elected to be the fall-guy and then resurrected to lead the ‘Global Warming’ charge. Are you all seriously mad?! How can you
NOT see the falsehood in his face. He is a brazen liar and con-artist and wake up America and smell the late-Aaron Russo’s movie - America: From Freedom To Fascism . This will explain all!
Dig into Obama and Gore and Bush and McCain and you will find the same sponsors and links!
That’s all I’m going to say. The rest is up to your gullible selves to discover, uncover and …
psst.. do something.. before the new government finally robs you ALL of your freedom and privacy and then your lives with the approaching 3rd World War. Oh, you think Obama and Gore are going to stop that from happening? They will be cheering from the sidelines, whilst lining their coffers with gold… oh, and oil.
I for one am always glad to hear from the tin foil hat brigade. The Freemasons and the Bilderbergs are gonna find you now that you posted something Kai. If I were you I’d start running. NOW!
Sometimes liberals make scary good capitalists.
Environmentalism is a for profit racket. It is owned by the big media bandits and the klepto-lawyers; and they have a very large army of free labor: do-gooders, simpletons, busy-bodies; all of them true believers; and the free laborers stack the juries, man the protests, and pack the voting booths. The racket shakes down corporations in the name of the environment and the corporations pass on the expense to the consumers.
