However, what Al the oil investment wizard fails to mention is that oil and gas are only a third of the carbon assets with coal being the major portion. Also, carbon capture is a blossoming technology which could be a major factor in offsetting CO2 emissions. And guess what? Exxon is a leader in that field. Renewables? Most major "carbon" companies are also heavily invested.
So corporations like Exxon, Chesapeake, Shell, BP, etc. are energy companies and not just oil companies. And they're likely to remain major players in the energy market regardless of the energy landscape unless for some reason we won't be needing any kind of energy in the future.
Al Gore is my George Costanza. I'd just do the opposite of what he says.
"Does this say anything about how AGW is a financial dream for Al Gore and AGW advocates?"
Al Gore does not make ANY money off of global warming.
You are simply very deranged.
Why do you pathologically insist on things that have been thoroughly disproven?
You zombies really are so similar to Holocaust Deniers.
Watch this, and retract your disgusting accusation:
I never voted for Al Gore, I never looked to him for advice on science, and I don't look to him for investment advice either, although he has done quite well for himself.
Deniers do seem quite fascinated with him, though. I guess it's easier to make a single politician the villain in their fantasies, rather than most of the world's earth scientists.
It says something about Deniers that they are the only ones who ever think about or mention Al Gore. Since Gore has nothing to do with climate science, maybe their fascination with him is purely sexual.
Al Gore didn't become a billionaire by telling the truth.
That $7 trillion has no real backing. It is just like monopoly money. But these snake oil salesmen seem to profit from it.
Only if Al Gore visited Svante Arrhenius in his time machine.

Tell me it isn't about money for Al Gore.
