In response to a geothermal energy question by Conan O’Brien, Al Gore claimed the temperature of the Earth's core is millions of degrees. The actual temperature of the Earth's core is at most around 9,000° Fahrenheit. On the other hand, the temperature of the Sun's interior is 27,000,000° Fahrenheit. The Goracle is only off by a few million degrees unless he believes we live on the Sun. This is what happens when you pretend to be a scientific expert after making a "C" and a "D" in your only two college semesters of natural science.
There is only one goddess Gaia and Al Gore is her prophet
Transcript from Hot Air:
Conan: Now, what about … you talk in the book about geothermal energy …
Al: Yeah, yeah.
Conan: and that is, as I understand it, using the heat that’s generated from the core of the earth …
Al: Yeah.
Conan: … to create energy, and it sounds to me like an evil plan by Lex Luthor to defeat Superman. Can you, can you tell me, is this a viable solution, geothermal energy?
Al: It definitely is, and it’s a relatively new one. People think about geothermal energy — when they think about it at all — in terms of the hot water bubbling up in some places, but two kilometers or so down in most places there are these incredibly hot rocks, ’cause the interior of the earth is extremely hot, several million degrees, and the crust of the earth is hot …
