So much for Al Gore walking the walk when he lectures us on the dangers of global warming


LOOK OVER THE DESCRIPTIONS OF THE FOLLOWING TWO HOUSES AND SEE IF YOU
CAN TELL WHICH BELONGS TO AN ENVIRONMENTALIST.

HOUSE # 1:
A 20-room mansion (not including 8 bathrooms) heated by natural gas.
Add on a pool (and a pool house) and a separate guest house all heated
by gas. In ONE MONTH ALONE this mansion consumes more energy than the
average American household in an ENTIRE YEAR. The average bill for
electricity and natural gas runs over $2,400.00 per month. In natural
gas alone (which last time we checked was a fossil fuel), this property
consumes more than 20 times the national average for an American home.
This house is not in a northern or Midwestern "snow belt," either. It's
in the South.



HOUSE # 2:
Designed by an architecture professor at a leading national university,
this house incorporates every "green" feature current home construction
can provide. The house contains only 4,000 square feet (4 bedrooms) and
is nestled on arid high prairie in the American southwest. A central
closet in the house holds geothermal heat pumps drawing ground water
through pipes sunk 300 feet into the ground. The water (usually 67
degrees F.) heats the house in winter and cools it in summer. The
system uses no fossil fuels such as oil or natural gas, and it consumes
25% of the electricity required for a conventional heating/cooling
system. Rainwater from the roof is collected and funneled into a 25,000
gallon underground cistern. Wastewater from showers, sinks and toilets
goes into underground purifying tanks and then into the cistern. The
collected water then irrigates the land surrounding the house. Flowers
and shrubs native to the are! a blend the property into the surrounding
rural landscape.



HOUSE # 1 (20 room energy guzzling mansion) is outside of
Nashville,Tennessee. It is the abode of that renowned environmentalist
(and filmmaker) Al Gore.


HOUSE # 2 (model eco-friendly house) is on a ranch near Crawford,
Texas. Also known as "the Texas White House," it is the private
residence of the President of the United States, George W. Bush.

house #1 was built in an era where ecology, environmentalism, and energy efficiency were not considered. It is being refitted to be as energy efficient as possible.

Al is still not walking the walk - just talking

Typical liberal - saying one thing and doing another

wrong. He is spending a great deal of money retrofitting his home to become more energy efficient. Do you think it would be more environmentally friendly to tear the old place down and erect a new home, or retrofit the existing home?

Al Gore is a huge hypocrite. He latched on to the environment to push his public profile up. Its been proven he doesnt live what he preaches

Keep the passes flowing MM

no. it has not been "proven". keep up the slander. Answer my question:

Do you think it would be more environmentally friendly to tear the old place down and erect a new home, or retrofit the existing home?

All still burns 20 times the energy of an average American home (one of his 4)
still rides in private jets, and take his limos

Libs seldom live their lives as they tell the rest of us to live ours

like I said. it is an old home. he is retrofitting it. why not answer my question?

expecting wealthy successful people who care about the environment to live in cardboard boxes is faux outrage.

No, just live their lives as they tell us to

I know that is asking way to much for the liberal elitists like Al
 
Did you read Al's books on global warming and conservation?

I wonder how many trees they had to chop down to print them
 
why won't you answer my question?

Do you think it would be more environmentally friendly to tear the old place down and erect a new home, or retrofit the existing home?

Al must have the best of everything. Libs never walk the walk only talk the talk
 
Keep trying to defend him MM

In your world Dems can do no wrong

that is incorrect.

but I will keep waiting for you to quit posturing and blustering and blowing smoke and maybe try to answer my question.

let me know if you grow a set.

hack. liar. moron. animal hater.

Truth hurts, eh?

no. IT doesn't.

when will you ever answer the question?

Do me a favor: don't bother responding to this thread anymore if all you are going to add is more stupid irrelevant one liners like this. I asked you a rather basic question:

Do you think it would be more environmentally friendly to tear the old place down and erect a new home, or retrofit the existing home?

and further:

Do you think that the private family quarters area of the white house uses more than 20 times the energy of the average american home?
 
Uhh, I may not have my PhD yet, but I'm getting closer to it, and I think I've learned a thing or two about science.

What I can say with ONE HUNDRED percent certainty, is that the merit of a scientific theory does not in any way, shape, or form,. depend at all, on the furnishings of the homes of those which believe the theory is correct.



SO YOU HAVE NO POINT
