Gore takes cash for water campaign from chemical firm - Americas, World - The Independent
Al Gore, the self-styled squeakiest-clean and deepest-green politician in American history, has some explaining to do this weekend. His environmental organisation has taken money to raise awareness about the need for clean water from a controversial chemicals company involved in the aftermath of one of the world's worst pollution disasters.

[Greenpeace "reviled" in Greenland?]
Less popular, at least among the people of Greenland, is the eco-campaign group Greenpeace, which is reviled there for blocking the import in the west of seal products. The aim was to end the clubbing of baby seals off Newfoundland but the move made it impossible for Inuit to sell sealskin taken in their own separate hunts of adult seals, an injustice and an insult by "ignorant southerners", says Anderson.
