An inconvenient truth about "An Inconvenient Truth"

More Al Gore Hypocrisy: ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ Wasn’t Carbon Neutral

According to a Web site release from NativeEnergy - which has since been removed - it only cost 40 tons of offsets (worth about $480) to make "An Inconvenient Truth" carbon neutral.

It's an absurdly low figure given that the making of a 30-second television commercial can easily produce 50 tons and the movie "Syriana" - another NativeEnergy project - was supposedly offset with 2,040 tons worth of offsets.

Offsets are a sham anyway and there's no actual scientific proof that they work. (How can you have scientific proof of something that supposedly will happen in the future?)
