Al Gore To Write [new] Book On Climate Change
CBS News ^ | March 24, 2009 | by Michelle Levi

Posted on 03/24/2009 1:01:04 PM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

Environmental activist and former Vice President Al Gore plans to release a new book, “Our Choice,” in November of 2009.

The book will “answer the call” for “urgent action” on a “comprehensive global plan that actually solves the climate crisis,” according to a press release.

Gore hopes that the book will “unquestionably inspire and rally those ready to fight for solutions that were deemed impossible only a short time ago.” He plans to lay out the conclusions he has reached after attending a number of “Solutions Summits” focused on the climate attended by policy experts, scientists and engineers.

In keeping with the theme of sustainability, “Our Choice” will be printed by Rodale Inc. Publishers on 100% recycled paper with locally produced and sourced editions and low VOC inks; it will also be carbon neutral. The former vice president and his wife Tipper will donate all of the book’s proceeds to the Alliance for Climate Protection, as they did with their popular film, “An Inconvenient Truth.”

“Environmentalism is a scare tactic used to seize control of the country and force our Marxist doctrine down their throats!”

Gee, will he say that in his book?

Hope this ne talks about how friggin' cold it's been lately in much of the world.

Also, he should talk about all of the stuff that he said contributes to global warming -- so we can start doing it again to stave off or minimize the effects of the next Ice Age.

Suggested title change:

“Inconveniently False”

subtitle:

“The story of how a Manbearpig with no scientific intelligence won a Nobel prize for getting it all wrong”

To printed "on 100% recycled paper ..."

I hope it is all recycled toilet tissue! I complained to the publisher of his first book on Climate Change that the pages were to rough!

I've got a remainder copy of "Inconvenient Truth."

I can update it myself by ripping out the pages which contain mistakes/lies.

Makes me wonder who's behind that organization. Most likely it's either the Gores themselves or friends of theirs, so they can pretend to look good while also getting to keep all that money tax-free.

Bingo.
He needs to put enough cash away before the scam is up so that he can retire to Aruba and laugh as the rest of the world economy implodes.

Okay . . . I was being cynical, but I just looked up the Alliance for Climate Protection’s board, and Al Gore actually is the chairman. Pretty sick.

I can use one of those mini staplers to bind the remaining pages.
