Gore's Climate Reality Project says Gore & climate change are "one of the favorite piñatas for media and easy targets for headlines. Always have been and always will be"

According to an internal email from Gore's own Climate 'Reality' Project, "As many of you already know, AG [Al Gore] and climate change are one of the favorite piñatas for media and easy targets for headlines. Always have been and always will be."

Boo hoo hoo

Internal email by Dan Stiles, the Climate Reality Project’s chief operating officer and the main spokesman for the group:


Subject: Buzzfeed and the piñata

Good morning/mid-day,
I am sure many of you have read the article Buzz Feed published today about our fearless leader and our fearless non-traditional efforts. I thought I would share a few thoughts that, of course, did not make it into the article.
As many of you already know, AG [Al Gore] and climate change are one of the favorite piñatas for media and easy targets for headlines. Always have been and always will be. In that stead, this particular piece was written with a narrative that the reporter had no interest in changing despite both GPG’s and my efforts to educate them on the great work of this team. You would think Buzzfeed, of all places, would understand our approach to tackle this issue. But, alas, headlines are more important to and easier for them than writing about innovation and a community effort.
AG and Maggie have both read the article and are unwavering in their support of each of you and our strategy. As are the Climate Leaders and others who have weighed in the comment section to the article already.
...
I can’t think of anything more inspiring than the opportunity to prove a naysayer wrong. And, I hope you find that inspiring too as we head into an action packed fall.
Let’s get out there and show them how its done!
Dan
