I agree with the comments made above. If no one objects, I will make a major update on the article soon. I plan to remove to paragraph on building efficiency, remove the majority of links at the end of the article, add (well sourced) sections to the controversy paragraphs and add a chapter on their investment strategy (e.g., they have two funds, about which quite a bit is public knowledge). Discussion about Al Gore belongs on the website about Al Gore, discussion about global warming belongs on the website on global warming.

== Personal activities and beneficial interests of principals is relevant ==

Since Al Gore is Chairman of this organization, and it is a major shareholder in the Chicago Carbon Exchange, and Mr. Gore is heavily involved in both campaigning for as well as profiting from anti-CO2 initiatives, it is quite appropriate and relevant to discuss both his personal energy example as well as the topic of global warming which ostensibly supports the basis for the firm's investment propositions.

Just to note that the external link 'Al Gore's Inconvenient Profit' http://wizbangblog.com/content/2007/03/03/al-gore-inconvenient-profit.php is little more than an ad hominen attack, and not even a particularly intelligent one. It adds nothing that is not explicit or implicit in the article and considerably detracts from the articles credibility wrt NPOV.

Seems a bit one-sided and illusive.

How can you have a Wikipedia page about Generation Investment Management and have 3 of 4 references concerning the upgrades to his house (???) and not even mention the fact that creating company revenue from the attempts to stop or hold off global warming is the second of the company's two major business strategies?

this is so one sided its not even funny

what does al gore's energy use have to do with anything? Why does the last line have a question mark on it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.35.16.177 (talk) 23:19, 31 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Record colds, average world temperatures declining since 1997, snow in parts of the middle east for the first time in recorded history. Global warming? I wish, we are freezing our rears off here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.214.94.128 (talk) 23:00, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Major update to the article planned

I agree with the comments made above. If no one objects, I will make a major update on the article soon. I plan to remove to paragraph on building efficiency, remove the majority of links at the end of the article, add (well sourced) sections to the controversy paragraphs and add a chapter on their investment strategy (e.g., they have two funds, about which quite a bit is public knowledge). Discussion about Al Gore belongs on the website about Al Gore, discussion about global warming belongs on the website on global warming. GNOJED3891 (talk) 16:12, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Personal activities and beneficial interests of principals is relevant

Since Al Gore is Chairman of this organization, and it is a major shareholder in the Chicago Carbon Exchange, and Mr. Gore is heavily involved in both campaigning for as well as profiting from anti-CO2 initiatives, it is quite appropriate and relevant to discuss both his personal energy example as well as the topic of global warming which ostensibly supports the basis for the firm's investment propositions.
