There are nearly 18,000 signatures from scientists
worldwide on a petition called The Oregon Petition
which says that there is no evidence for man-made
global warming theory nor for any impact from
mankind's activities on climate.

Al Gore is a hypocrite

Al Gore's Personal Energy Use Is His Own "Inconvenient Truth"
Gore's home uses more than 20 times the national average

Last night, Al Gore's global-warming documentary, An
Inconvenient Truth, collected an Oscar for best
documentary feature, but the Tennessee Center for Policy
Research has found that Gore deserves a gold statue for
hypocrisy.

Gore's mansion, located in the posh Belle Meade area
of Nashville, consumes more electricity every month
than the average American household uses in an entire
year, according to the Nashville Electric Service (NES).

In his documentary, the former Vice President calls on
Americans to conserve energy by reducing electricity
consumption at home.

The average household in America consumes 10,656
kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year, according to the
Department of Energy. In 2006, Gore devoured nearly
221,000 kWh-more than 20 times the national average.

Last August alone, Gore burned through 22,619 kWh
-guzzling more than twice the electricity in one month
than an average American family uses in an entire year.
As a result of his energy consumption, Gore's average
monthly electric bill topped $1,359.

Since the release of An Inconvenient Truth, Gore's
energy consumption has increased from an average
of 16,200 kWh per month in 2005, to 18,400 kWh per
month in 2006.

Gore's extravagant energy use does not stop at his
electric bill. Natural gas bills for Gore's mansion and
guest house averaged $1,080 per month last year.

"As the spokesman of choice for the global warming
movement, Al Gore has to be willing to walk the walk,
not just talk the talk, when it comes to home energy
use," said Tennessee Center for Policy Research
President Drew Johnson.

In total, Gore paid nearly $30,000 in combined
electricity and natural gas bills for his Nashville
estate in 2006.
