When you find an excuse that works, I say stick with it.
The same guy who leaked Al Gore's utility bills checked up on Al for Earth Hour:
The kicker, though, were the dozen or so floodlights grandly highlighting several trees and illuminating the driveway entrance of Gore’s mansion.
I [kid] you not, my friends, the savior of the environment couldn’t be bothered to turn off the gaudy lights that show off his goofy trees.
So a Gore spokeswoman handled the excuses:
They have undergone renovations to put solar panels on the roof and participate in all of the renewable power programs offered by their local utility.
Obviously she's new, because that was the same excuse they used in 2007, when it was revealed that Gore's utility bills were 20 times the national average. So why isn't she saying that the solar panels have been installed? She also claimed (falsely, or erroneously) that the house is geothermally powered. I'll give her a Mulligan on that, if she'll explain why the solar panels they were putting in last scandal haven't been installed yet.
It'd also be interesting to find out if Gore's Thunder Yacht has solar panels yet.
