George Bush More “Green” Than Gore

Oh, this is just priceless.
Is it possible that George Bush is a secret Green?� Evidently his Crawford Winter White House has 25,000 gallons of rainwater storage, gray water collection from sinks and showers for irrigation, passive solar, geothermal heating and cooling. �By marketplace standards, the house is startlingly small,� says David Heymann, the architect of the 4,000-square-foot home. “Clients of similar ilk are building 16-to-20,000-square-foot houses.”
Furthermore for thermal mass the walls are clad in “discards of a local stone called Leuders limestone, which is quarried in the area. The 12-to-18-inch-thick stone has a mix of colors on the top and bottom, with a cream-colored center that most people want. �They cut the top and bottom of it off because nobody really wants it,� Heymann says. �So we bought all this throwaway stone. It�s fabulous. It�s got great color and it is relatively inexpensive.�
Meanwhile, at Stately Gore Manor in Nashville….
The average household in America consumes 10,656 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year, according to the Department of Energy. In 2006, Gore devoured nearly 221,000 kWh�more than 20 times the national average.�
Last August alone, Gore burned through 22,619 kWh�guzzling more than twice the electricity in one month than an average American family uses in an entire year.�� As a result of his energy consumption, Gore�s average monthly electric bill topped $1,359.
Since the release of An Inconvenient Truth, Gore�s energy consumption has increased from an average of 16,200 kWh per month in 2005, to 18,400 kWh per month in 2006.� Gore�s extravagant energy use does not stop at his electric bill. Natural gas bills for Gore�s mansion and guest house averaged $1,080 per month last year.
�In total, Gore paid nearly $30,000 in combined electricity and natural gas bills for his Nashville estate in 2006.�
