More quotes by Al Gore
The age of printed pamphlets and political essays has long since been replaced by television, a distracting and absorbing medium which seems determined to entertain itself more than it informs and educates.
Al Gore
In a time of social fragmentation, vulgarity becomes a way of life. To be shocking becomes more important - and often more profitable - than to be civil or creative or truly original.
Al Gore
We face the gravest threat that civilization has ever confronted. It's global in nature and requires a global solution. Increased CO2 emissions anywhere, whether from China or the United States or from one of the countries that is burning its forests like Brazil or Indonesia.
Al Gore
Two thousand scientists, in a hundred countries, engaged in the most elaborate, well organized scientific collaboration in the history of humankind, have produced long-since a consensus that we will face a string of terrible catastrophes unless we act to prepare ourselves and deal with the underlying causes of global warming.
Al Gore
...it is appropriate to have an over representation of factual presentations on how dangerous it is, as a predicate for opening up the audience to listen to what the solutions are, and how hopeful it is that we are going to solve this crisis.
Al Gore
Any child born into the hugely consumptionist way of life so common in the industrial world will have an impact that is, on average, many times more destructive than that of a child born in the developing world.
Al Gore
In a free society, there comes a time when the truth - however hard it may be to hear, however impolitic it may seem to say - must be told.
Al Gore
We're all capable of mistakes, but I do not care to enlighten you on the mistakes we may or may not have made.
Al Gore
ManBearPig, half man, half bear, half pig
Al Gore
How could this Y2K be a problem in a country where we have Intel and Microsoft?
Al Gore
Civil disobedience has an honourable history, and when the urgency and moral clarity cross a certain threshold, then I think that civil disobedience is quite understandable, and it has a role to play.
Al Gore
Israel has its own right as a nation to defend its national security.
Al Gore
It's a blessing to have work that feels fulfilling.
Al Gore
We are seeing every night on the television news now a nature hike through the Book of Revelation. These climate-related extreme weather events have convinced the vast majority of people that the scientists have been right for a long time. We have to address this.
Al Gore
What changed in the United States with Hurricane Katrina was a feeling that we have entered a period of consequences.
Al Gore
It's not unusual to find big political shifts that take place beneath the surface before they're visible above the surface.
Al Gore
I believe that the purpose of life is to glorify God.
Al Gore
George Bush taking credit for the wall coming down is like the rooster taking credit for the sun rising.
Al Gore
When it comes to climate, we can all make a big difference. At the most basic level, don't let denial go unchallenged and win the conversation on climate.
Al Gore
Take it from me - every vote counts. In our Democracy, every vote has power. And never forget - that power is yours. Don't let anyone take it away or talk you into throwing it away. And let's make sure that this time every vote is counted.
Al Gore
