More quotes by Al Gore
Many of the green places and open spaces that need protecting most today are in our own neighborhoods. In too many places, the beauty of local vistas has been degraded by decades of ill-planned and ill-coordinated development.
Al Gore
There are many who would much prefer that the word 'climate' never be mentioned and that the issue be eliminated from our national conversation.
Al Gore
When we respond to threats immediately and take action right away, it's usually the threats that we're hard-wired to respond to, the kinds of things that our ancestors survived.
Al Gore
Hey, you know what, I've gotta go on that 'Letterman' show. That show is so lame.
Al Gore
Most people in politics draw energy from backslapping and shaking hands and all that. I draw energy from discussing ideas.
Al Gore
I think the cost of energy will come down when we make this transition to renewable energy.
Al Gore
I flew on Air Force Two for eight years, and now I have to take off my shoes to get on an aeroplane.
Al Gore
The ability of big money to shape perceptions - where you have four anti-climate lobbyists for every single member of the House and Senate - is a big factor.
Al Gore
There are people who are genuinely upset in the Tea Party. I understand that. But that movement was funded with seed money from right-wing billionaires, the Koch brothers, and promoted on Fox News, and turned into a stocking horse for the right-wing agenda that a lot of people have been trying to push on the country for a long time.
Al Gore
As many know, the Chinese expression for crisis consists of two characters side by side. The first is the symbol for danger, the second the symbol for opportunity.
Al Gore
I have a sense of mission on this climate crisis, and I'm trying to pour all the energy I have into it. And I hope that I, along with others, can catalyze the emergence of real solutions to the climate crisis. I think we're making a lot of progress. I think we're going to win this, but it matters how quickly we win it. So I'm focused on that.
Al Gore
You know, in physics there's the old law for every action there's a equal amount of reaction. Sometimes that's true in politics. If somebody's out there making nonsensical statements, but wielding power behind them a lot of people say, Well, I need to react to that. I think that's happening.
Al Gore
The very first words that we, the American nation, spoke were right here in Philadelphia. You know those words: We the people. It wasn't, We the conglomerates. It wasn't, We the corporations. It was, We the people.
Al Gore
Hurricane Sandy is a disturbing sign of things to come. We must heed this warning and act quickly to solve the climate crisis. Dirty energy makes dirty weather.
Al Gore
The way to bring gas prices down is to end our dependence on oil and use the renewable sources that can give us the equivalent of $1 per gallon gasoline.
Al Gore
The presidency is more than a popularity contest.
Al Gore
The will to act is a renewable resource.
Al Gore
Traditionally the United States has been the natural leader of the world. That's not just pride as an American speaking it's just the reality. Without the U.S. being involved in Paris Climate Agreement, it's hard for the world community to move forward as effectively.
Al Gore
Here`s my point. I don`t want you to be in a position years from now where you welcome Hillary Clinton and say actually you did win. It just wasn`t close enough to make sure that all the votes were counted or whatever. Elections have consequences. Your vote counts. Your vote has consequences.
Al Gore
The choice to 'do nothing' in response to the mounting evidence is actually a choice to continue and even accelerate the reckless environmental destruction that is creating the catastrophe at hand.
Al Gore
