Book Discussion: Our Choice by Al Gore
Julian Brookes | Friday, October 9, 2009 05:02 PM
A call to action from our leading environmental advocate that answers the climate questions posed in An Inconvenient Truth, a New York Times bestseller for nine months.
Since the publication of An Inconvenient Truth and the release of the Academy Award–winning film of the same name, former vice president Al Gore has led more than thirty “Solutions Summits” with top scientists, engineers, and policy experts to examine every solution to the climate crisis in depth and detail. Our Choice draws on conclusions developed through those summits as well as on extensive independent research, describing how the bold choices necessary to save the earth’s climate should also be the foundations of policies worldwide to create new jobs and stimulate sustainable economic progress.
Our Choice picks up where An Inconvenient Truth left off, providing a blueprint for solving the global climate crisis and drawing on Gore’s forty years of experience as a student, policymaker, author, filmmaker, entrepreneur, and activist. A corecipient of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007 for his environmental work, the former vice president illuminates the real solutions to the climate crisis and describes a comprehensive global strategy to urgently implement them.
Printed on custom-made 100 percent recycled paper and featuring full-color photographs, illustrations, and charts throughout, Our Choice is an inspiring call to action to those ready to fight for solutions that really work—including some bold initiatives that were deemed impossible only a short time ago but are now gaining support around the world.
