Among other changes, they installed a geothermal heating system, solar panels and a rainwater collection system, and replaced their light bulbs with compact fluorescent and diode bulbs. The renovation helped them achieve an 11 percent drop in home energy consumption at a time (in the summer) when most neighboring homes increased energy consumption by 25-30 percent. Happy 60th birthday to environmental activist Al Gore.

That is awesome, how about his other 10,000 sq foot home in Calif? How about all the fuel he wastes jeting around the world to tell us how we need to cut down on the emissions? Hypocrite extraordinaire.
