Climate Change

The following is a letter from Al Gore for climate change, please read and sign the petition if you wish.

In Bali, Indonesia thousands of delegates from nearly 190 countries have gathered at the UN Conference on Climate Change. In nine days, I will address the conference to urge the adoption of a visionary new treaty to address global warming and I want to bring your voices with me.

Click here to sign my petition today and I will bring your signatures on stage with me as a clear demonstration of our resolve:

Together, we will call on the US government to assume a new leadership role in solving the climate crisis.

World leaders including British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, French President Nicolas Sarkozy, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and newly elected Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd have all agreed to aggressively battle the climate crisis – yet our country still lags behind.

Over the next nine days, I would like you to help me get people from across the country to sign our message to the global community. We can demonstrate that the American people understand the immediacy of the climate crisis and want to work with the nations of the world to solve it.

Time is short – we need to mobilize everyone to bring this message to Bali.

The American people want a visionary treaty to address climate change and for the US government to play a positive leadership role in its development.

Thank you,

Al Gore

P.S. After signing the petition, please urge your friends and family to sign the petition and join the movement.

Some Thoughts

Hey All,

Just to say thanks for all the great comments on the blog, and that it suprised me how many of you read it and /or look at my show, Earth Alert.  I am currently in production of episodes for a 30 minute version of Earth Alert, if you have requests or suggestions please let me know.  Also as I rode today in some rain my mind passed on the strange weather we have been experiencing all around the planet.  The fact is that we are at the start of major changes in the planet for which there is no precedent, even if the has been a similar change in the climate, it has never happened with 7 billion humans seeking to survive here.  Just a thought to get you thinking.
