Remember the report from tennesseepolicy.org in 2007 in which it was revealed that Gore devoured nearly 221,000 kWh—more than 20 times the US average in 2006? There are photos at this link which show that he left his lights on for Earth Hour. He knows the threat of global warming is a hoax, so it’s not surprising.
Even during Earth Hour. President of the Tennessee Center For Policy Research Drew Johnson takes a Saturday drive by Al Gore’s during the time most environmentalists went dark. See the photos of light on at Al Gore’s property.
“I pulled up to Al’s house, located in the posh Belle Meade section of Nashville, at 8:48pm – right in the middle of Earth Hour. I found that the main spotlights that usually illuminate his 9,000 square foot mansion were dark, but several of the lights inside the house were on.
In fact, most of the windows were lit by the familiar blue-ish hue indicating that floor lamps and ceiling fixtures were off, but TV screens and computer monitors were hard at work. (In other words, his house looked the way most houses look about 1:45am when their inhabitants are distractedly watching “Cheaters” or “Chelsea Lately” reruns.)
The kicker, though, were the dozen or so floodlights grandly highlighting several trees and illuminating the driveway entrance of Gore’s mansion.
I [kid] you not, my friends, the saviour of the environment couldn’t be bothered to turn off the gaudy lights that show off his goofy trees.
This, of course, would be the same Drew Johnson who exposed Gore’s excessive energy use at his home back in 2007.
UPDATE: Gore responds to accusations.
UPDATE II: Drew Johnson stands by his story.
