This – in my head – is NOT a politics blog. I find my politics to be very hard to articulate into the written word, as opposed to a verbal debate. Not to mention extremely volatile. I therefore ignore it in my blog. I found the following article very interesting. I didn’t copy the whole thing here, you’ll have to click the link. I will not offer any commentary.
How Green Is He?
Gore isn’t quite as green as he’s led the world to believe
By PETER SCHWEIZER, USA Today
“Humanity might be “sitting on a ticking time bomb,” but Gore’s home in Carthage is sitting on a zinc mine. Gore receives $20,000 a year in royalties from Pasminco Zinc, which operates a zinc concession on his property. Tennessee has cited the company for adding large quantities of barium, iron and zinc to the nearby Caney Fork River.”
Which shows that as long as he keeps getting that $20k, there’s no reason to move.
