Fat Gore Rightly Gored in India

March 28 (LPAC)--Jello-Head Al Gore was in New Delhi on a two-day (March 15-16) visit to launch the Climate Project* in India. During his speech, he was heckled by some young men and women, and outside of the forum he met with some students carrying banners. One such banner said: "No Killing of Indian people." What the banner referred to is the campaign by Gore, and his collaborators, to reduce methane production in the rice paddy fields. That campaign was rightly interpreted by the students as a demarche for "cutting down on rice production by using less amounts of fertilizer, or using less land for rice production", a known euphemism for genocide.

According to the Jello-Head: "The correct response to the climate crisis is not a comparison between some level of pollution that has been achieved by other countries a long time ago with dirty technologies but rather what can be achieved in the 21st century with efficient technologies." And, when hecklers stood up, Gore shifted gear putting in a sentence saying: "People in developing nations have a right to aspire to a higher standard of living... right to set up whatever goals they think are appropriate. In any case, the correct comparison is between the future we want and the future we shall have unless we take the right path."

*The Climate Project, a nonprofit organization based in Nashville, TN, began operations in June 2006 with the mission of brainwashing the public to believe in the existence of a "climate crisis", at a grassroots level in the United States and abroad. One of the presenters of the Climate Project is Bill Bradbury, Secretary of State of Oregon.
