Frost Illustrated: Al Gore: The greatest environmental hustler?

Al wrote a book about his ventures entitled “An Inconvenient Truth.” His dreams were realized. The book was a great success and the documentary film won an Academy Award. The guy even received a Nobel Peace Prize from the encouragement of the environmentalist community. In the end, he made many millions of dollars and is still rolling. He didn’t become President, but he is filthy rich by anybody’s standards.

The above can become a case study in how to take advantage of half science, fear and a strong hunger for answers. A good hustler will provide the “answer;” sell it with a vengeance, and reap the cash some kind of way. The old country boy did it. It was all about “an inconvenient lie”.

Do you have any doubts about Jones’s data?

Vilsack said, “Well, all I can say is the vast majority of scientists and researchers believe that there has been a significant climate change, which has occurred. There are some indications that this decade has been one of the warmest, if not the warmest, in many, many, many, many centuries.”
