by not reading the full article. They guy makes the word Hypocrite feel somehow woefully inadequate.
The editor-in-chief of GreenTechMedia Stephen Lacey described Gore in an appearance The Energy Gang podcast in 2017: 'He is a flawed character. We’re in an era of backlash against elites, so Gore, a guy who bought a 6,500-square-foot seafront home in California for $8.8 million, and who hangs around with other celebrities who talk big on climate but who live lavish lifestyles, is the perfect target at this point in time.'
The mission statement of the investment firm, where Gore collects $2 million in a monthly salary, is to back companies that are making strides towards going green. The firm is worth around $36 billion.
In November 2021 at the UN Summit on Climate Change, he compared the world's complacency on climate change to the way it failed to take seriously the threat of fascism during the 1930s.
Gore also nets at least $200,000 per public speaking engagement. Gore's advice on 'going green' is also sought by the biggest businesses in the world for undisclosed sums.
In the aftermath of his run for the presidency, Gore received $15 million in taxpayer money for 'nomination expenses,' ABC News reported at the time.
