Al Gore selects some global warming hoax games!

Gaming For Good: Al Gore’s Finalist Picks Announced @PSFK

Check out his choices below:

...Climate Trail is a game that lets players follow the ‘money trail’ tied to the dissemination of false data. Similar in style to the classic game Oregon Trail, Climate Trail is text-based. The goal is to reach the year 2036 with a healthy and liveable community.

...REALITY DROP, Arnold Worldwide, Boston, MA

Climate change deniers show up anywhere. Finding them and fighting them requires easy access to complex arguments. This site makes it simple to spread science and destroy doubt. Climate news is prioritized by ‘heat:’ hostility, reach, sentiment and timeliness. Players can earn points by grabbing related scientific articles, videos, and data points, and pasting them into hot articles to blast climate denial into oblivion.

...CLIMATE REALITY PATROL, Parlor. New York, NY

The Climate Reality Patrol is where climate reality activism meets social media, gaming and rewards. At its core, this is a tool that allows users to instantly tag their online comments with Climate Reality keyword facts to earn badges and rewards.

Dude must have taken up drinking.
Arnold Worldwide seems to be an ode to Jack Daniel's, Southern Comfort, and mixer.
Parlor has a screen sized header designed after Jack Daniel's Black Label.
