Just when you thought it couldn't get any funnier...

Here:
Comment from Jim Peden

Al Gore now combines Amway and Evangelism to produce a series of "training sessions" which in turn will produce an army of "climate change fighters". His new Climate Project is non-profit volunteer group that focuses on his now totally-discredited movie, An Inconvenient Truth and his follow-up presentations. Gore will lead the participants through the junk science and format of his presentation, so they can repeat it in their communities.

His reported advertising budget? $300,000,000.00.

Each participant makes a commitment to give the presentation at least 10 times. No mention of a pink Cadillac as a prize for the most converts.
On a related note, check out this sentence from the presenters' Climate Statement:
We are 275 volunteers, of diverse backgrounds and ages, and representing all Canadian provinces and territories, who have been trained by Nobel Laureate the Honourable Al Gore to deliver his Academy Award-winning climate change presentation – to raise awareness and to inspire action on this planetary emergency.
If there's one thing we've all evidently learned, it's that those Oscar voters are absolute sticklers on scientific truth in movies.
