Former US Senator, Vice-President, filmmaker and Nobel Peace Prize winner Al Gore is prospering mightily from the global warming hysteria he has proliferated. His obsessive fear-mongering campaigns for government controls of climate .jpg)

Gore is not only a climate campaigner and partisan political operative, but also a green profiteer positioned to capitalize on government climate regulations such as the cap-and-trade carbon tax systems and renewable energy programs. He also operates a $300 million global campaign to end the use of fossil fuels in favor of unproven renewables.

Gore is not only a climate campaigner and partisan political operative, but also a green profiteer positioned to capitalize on government climate regulations such as the cap-and-trade carbon tax systems and renewable energy programs. He also operates a $300 million global campaign to end the use of fossil fuels in favor of unproven renewables.Here are some of Gore’s capital ventures and green business affiliations:
· Gore’s firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers is one of the Silicon Valley’s top venture capital investment groups with nearly $1 billion invested in renewable energy and efficiency projects;
· Gore advises Silver Springs Networks, producers of hardware and software to make the electricity grid more efficient. Gore’s firm gave them $75 million for expansion of utilities meter businesses. Recent U.S. Department of Energy grants of $560 million went to utilities with which Silver Spring has contracts;
· Gore is a founder of Generation Investment Management in London run by David Blood, a former head of Goldman Sachs;
· Gore recently invested $35 million in Capricon Investment Group, a private equity fund;
· Gore has invested millions to found eco-nonprofits such as the Alliance for Climate Protection, and the Climate Project which trains groups around the world to proliferate his propagandist documentary film "An Inconvenient Truth." Royalties from Gore’s new climate book "Our Chioce" will go to the alliance.
· Gore has significant investments in major global carbon emission credit trading markets, and in numerous bio-fuels, sustainable fish farming, electric vehicles and solar power enterprises.
Al Gore left government in 2001, after a petty attempt to delegitimize the presidency of George Bush. His assets at that time were less than $2 million. Gore may now have become the world’s first “climate billionaire” by profiteering from government policies he supported that now direct billions of dollars to the business ventures in which he is invested.
