ASÍ, ¿quién es ahora quien está a sueldo de las malvadas corporaciones que contaminan el planeta, eh?

Al Gore, the self-styled squeakiest-clean and deepest-green politician in American history, has some explaining to do this weekend. His environmental organisation has taken money to raise awareness about the need for clean water from a controversial chemicals company involved in the aftermath of one of the world's worst pollution disasters.

Dow Chemical, the US firm which now owns the leaking pesticides factory responsible for thousands of deaths in Bhopal, India, is sponsoring Life Earth events in 150 cities today. The event aims to raise money for clean water programmes. Research by environmental organisations has found dangerous levels of highly toxic chemicals in rivers, lakes and other water supplies close to several other factories owned by Dow and its subsidiaries in countries including the United States, Brazil and South Africa.

Al Gore, Míster Todo Por La Pasta. Pero eso está bien, porque él dice que está en el "lado correcto", aunque luego haga lo que le dé la gana. Es sólo cuando algún científico escéptico es invitado a alguna conferencia y le pagan el avión y el hotel, que el mismo Gore berrea diciendo que no hay que hacerle caso porque es un vendido.
