Now aren't you really glad this guy isn't president?
"I don't want to diminish the threat of terrorism at all, it is extremely serious, but on a long-term global basis, global warming is the most serious problem we are facing." emphasis mineI would venture to say that "Blood and Gore" is exactly what we would be facing on our own streets today had this bozo actually been elected president in 2000.To be sure, holding a "feel-good" investment may appeal to the heart, but it's of no real use if it doesn't produce a healthy financial return.
Gore's partner David Blood (their other partners ruled out calling the company Blood and Gore for obvious reasons) says Generation doesn't ban entire sectors from its portfolio for purely ethical reasons. "Sustainable investing isn't something that's separate from traditional fundamental stock picking. It's an integral part. There are long-term issues that affect a company's ability to generate revenues and protect its competitive advantage," Blood says.
We truly dodged a bullet on that one.
