Gore Gets Gold Going Green

Love him or hate him, it’s hard to argue with the influence that Al Gore has had over the green movement. From his 2006 documentary An Inconvenient Truth to his Nobel Peace Prize, Gore has become the poster boy for all things green.

Who knew that putting your money where your mouth is could be so profitable?
