What Gore has done is to bring the environment into the minds of the collective conscieousness, which in the end has much bigger implications than him not getting on a plane. While I highly respect what you are doing, I don't think it's really apples to apples here.
Just because Al Gore doesn't live exactly according to what he preaches, doesn't nullify the message.
