GORE'S FISHY DISH

GREEN campaigner Al Gore is under fire after an endangered fish was served at his daughter's wedding.

Just a week after launching the Live Earth concerts, the former US Vice President let his green credentials slip when Chilean sea bass was given to guests at the reception in Beverly Hills, California.

The sea bass is one of the world's most over-fished species. Gore, who also made an Oscar-winning climate change documentary, has not commented on the row.


Well as it turns out.......

But, according to The Telegraph, the fish enjoyed by the Gores were not endangered or illegally caught.

Rather, the restaurant later confirmed, they had come from one of the world's few well-managed, sustainable populations of toothfish, and were caught and documented in compliance with Marine Stewardship Council regulations.
