Gore won’t take ‘formal role’ in new admininstration

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — Former Vice President Al Gore said Thursday he would “not be taking a formal role” in the administration of President-elect Barack Obama, but that he has been in contact with Obama and would do whatever he could to help him. Shifting to renewable energy could help pave the way out of the current global economic crisis, Gore said a conference of economic and phanthropic leaders. “The climate crisis and the economic crisis all have the common thread of our ridiculous over-dependence on carbon fuels,” he said. Some had speculated Gore could take on a new role of “climate czar” in the upcoming administration.
