If he had the balls to do anything while in office as VP he would have, the problem with that is he would have lost all the votes from the oil and gas sector which would include auto workers union, this he couldn't have done.

Interestingly, this is the answer to the question you pose below;

If these people want to preach about global warming and how easy it is to fix then why don't they start at the top, they have the technology for electric/solar power cars, why doesn't mister Gore do something about that? See, once big business buys into global warming and fixing it then it will trickle down to the consumer, but until they do something about it then it's not a topic worth talking about. The oil and gas companies are the ones with the power to make a change, i don't forsee this happening in North America for a long time.

Seems to me that the fact that he's doing something
now makes him a lot 'better' than the thousands of wealthy/powerful politicians in the US doing nothing (which, I grant, he used to be). Dick Cheney is the VP now... why doesn't
he do something?
