Explain to me the change that Al Gore is making, is that the movie that you saw? Is that the change that you are speaking of? The last time i looked i saw ENCANA building the tallest skyscraper in Calgary, does that look like a company that has the environment on their mind? I see the ODD hybrid driving down the street which i'm sure more people would be driving if they weren't overpriced that the average working person couldn't afford one.
Yes, i see the change that he made while in the government and i see what he is doing now, little has changed as far as i can see.
Dick Cheney doesn't pose as an environmentalist/politician, that's the difference. A politician has the power to make change, the President of the US has the power to do what he wants, when he wants, we are witnessing that right now by the leader they have. Gore preaching about change and not running for president is laughable....if the president can't do anything to save the environment then who will?
