The article deals with the advice of entrepreneurs to former U.S. Vice President Al Gore, who had recently joined venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, on where he should look for deals. According to Jason Salfi, co-founder and president of Comet Skateboards, he would look to invest in technology that deals with water purification, desalinization, and distribution of water to places where there is not enough. Ray Anderson, chairman of Interface, argues that they need to invest in more network optimization technology.
