Al Gore niet zuinig met energie

Al Gore, bekend van de documentaire 'An Inconvenient Truth', waarin tot matiging van energiegebruik wordt opgeroepen, blijkt zelf niet zo zuinig met energie om te springen:
A Tennessee-based free market think-tank said Mr Gore's home used more than 20 times the national average of gas and electricity.
[...]
The Tennessee Center for Policy Research said utility bills obtained from public records indicated that Mr Gore's 20-room house and swimming pool in Nashville used nearly 221,000 kWh in 2006, compared with a yearly average of 10,656.
