Al Gore
I don't have the illusion that there's any position or role in the world with as much potential for bringing about change as that of president of the United States.
Al Gore
Adopting a central organizing principle means embarking on an all-out effort to use every policy and program, every law and institution, to halt the destruction of the environment.

Sri Chinmoy was a once in a lifetime spiritual leader who touched the lives of millions of people through his teachings, art, athletics, and music. He was a student of peace and he embodied peace. Sri Chinmoy was a great man and his life's work significantly helped to build world harmony and will continue to do so.
Al Gore
Science has a culture that is inherently cautious and that is normally not a bad thing.

Al Gore

We need to put a price on carbon. This needs to be a priority for all of us in how we vote.
Al Gore
I think that more diversity is a good thing, and fresh points of view articulated by people who are committed to excellence in journalism is a beneficial change in the American media landscape.
Al Gore
The symbolism - and the substantive significance - of planting a tree has universal power in every culture and every society on Earth, and it is a way for individual men, women and children to participate in creating solutions for the environmental crisis.
Al Gore
At some point, a false belief collides with physical reality.
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

Al Gore
The warnings about global warming have been extremely clear for a long time. We are facing a global climate crisis. It is deepening. We are entering a period of consequences.
Al Gore
What we've often seen is that when we Americans say, look, we've got to reduce pollution, business - some businesses complain about it, but almost every time, it's turned out to be easier and cheaper and accomplished faster, and they've gained confidence, and then we go farther.
Al Gore
When energy prices go up, the difficulty of projecting demand also goes up - uncertainty goes up.
Al Gore
The moral imperative to make big changes is inescapable...that what we take for granted may not be here for our children
Al Gore
As long as the government's actions are secret, it cannot be held accountable. A government for the people and by the people should be transparent to the people.
Al Gore
