Since Al Gore’s departure from public office in 21, the former vice president of the United States, senator, and congressman has devoted much of his time to warning the world of alarming climate changes. The message is highly disturbing, but Gore delivers it in his patient southern drawl, assuring audiences that the problem is not beyond solution. His award-winning efforts have helped focus growing attention on global warming. In the process, they have made Gore a more prominent public figure today than ever before. Students examine Gore’s background as an environmental activist, his work as a journalist and politician, and about his fight to educate people about global warming and its implications.
