Gore's GIM Hedge Funds was started to make money off a Carbon Exchange. The entire original intent of the hedge fund was to become wealthy off of the carbon market after Gore went on a national tour pushing his Inconvenient Truth movie. Unfortunately for Gore, the Obama administration did not push for a mandatory carbon credit exchange market in the U.S.; due to this the GIM Hedge Fund needed to change direction and focus on green investments. Most of the investments involved participating in deals funded by the U.S. government - which has been cited as being nothing more than crony capitalism. If Gore had succeeding in having the government implement a mandatory carbon exchange, he would be the wealthiest person in America via his GIM Hedge Fund - even wealthier than Bill Gates. Anyone who claims that Gore is not pushing for a carbon credit market and tax in order to make money is severely deluded. It's the inconvenient truth.

Does Al Gore own a large percentage of a carbon trading exchange? Why is Al Gore pushing for a tax on low income families?
I wonder if Al Gore provides a disclaimer regarding his investment in the carbon trading exchange everytime he gives a presentation.
Gore is pushing for a carbon tax because it is the right thing to do. It's not to make money. You are extremely deluded

How much money will he make a year from his ownership in the carbon trading exchange if a cap-n-crunch tax is implemented? You can't handle the truth!
Bill Ackman shorted Herbalife and gave presentations regarding his thesis that HLF is a pyramid scheme because it is the right thing to do. Blahahahahahahaha
