	Al Gore 'profiting' from climate change agenda http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1257436951 The former US vice president is in line to make a large profit from a firm producing smart meters which monitor household electricity use. He is a partner in a Silicon Valley venture capital firm which invested $45 million in Silver Spring Networks, a small California company which has been developing technology to monitor household power use to make the electricity grid more efficient. Last week the US Energy Department announced $2 billion in grants and a proportion of that, thought to be more than $305 million, will go to utility operators with which Silver Spring has contracts. The venture capitalists who invested, including Mr Gore, now look set to receive a handsome return.
