Two Academy Members Want Al Gore To Give Back His Oscar

This is pretty serious. Well not serious like hey our unemployment rate is ONLY 10%, not hey economy is in a free fall serious, but I'm certain it's a wee bit serious to the Man Who Would Be President, Al Gore.

In the church of Al Gore we worship at the altar of global warming and now there is even more reason to question the truth on Global Warming.

Two members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences have called on the group to take back the Oscar awarded to ex-Vice President Al Gore for the documentary "An Inconvenient Truth."

Imagine, an academy award for a college lecture? Maybe I could get me one of those man-lift things and film one of my high school business lectures like the one about how you can't spend money you don't have.

In the mean time the United Nations climate change will meet in Copenhagen. That's right, 16,500 people from 192 countries will fly in using private jets, consume 200,000 meals and produce an estimated 41,000 tons of carbon dioxide, roughly the same as the carbon emissions of Morocco in 2006. Think about all those polar bears.



I would think if we were at crisis level with global warming they might try Go To Meeting instead of all this jetting off to Copenhagen. They should take a page out of Al Gore's book. After all he has cancelled his trip there. Then again, maybe Al Gore cancelled his trip for other reasons.

Too bad because Al Gore stood to make some real money at the event. here's the announcement at VisitCopenhagen.com:

Have you ever shaken hands with an American vice president? If not, now is your chance. Meet Al Gore in Copenhagen during the UN Climate Change Conference in December 2009.

VIP meeting with Al Gore

This is the book, on which Al Gore will base his lecture, when he invites Copenhageners and visitors to hear him speak about what can be done to solve the serious problems of climate change.

Tickets are available in different price ranges for the event. If you want it all, you can purchase a VIP ticket, where you get a chance to shake hands with Al Gore, get a copy of Our Choice and have your picture taken with him. The VIP event costs DKK 5,999 and includes drinks and a light snack.

If you do not want to spend that much money, but still want to hear Al Gore speak about his latest book about climate challenges, you can purchase general tickets, ranging in price from DKK 199 - 1,499 depending on where in the room you want to sit. There will be large screens, so that everyone will get a good view.

How much is DKK 5,999?

Well, according to TheMoneyConverter.com, a Danish Krone is currently worth 20.22 cents.

That means 5,999 Krones is about $1,213. Nice work if you can get it.
