November 14, 2009 – Beverly Hills, CA (Cable Muse Network) – Thursday evening Al Gore took his global warming campaign to Beverly Hills at the Saban Theater speaking fervently to a packed audience which included parents, teachers, students and scientists about the dangers of environmental desuetude. The spectators erupted with applause and mirth several times throughout the night as the former Vice President Al Gore made environmental jokes that even included Homer Simpson. Gore’s prime focus was to educate his listeners on renewable energy and gain their support for key legislation that will be discussed at the Dec 7-18 climate change conference known as COP15 in Copenhagen.

“Renewable energy is the key to prosperity,” Gore said. “The resolution to climate control involves three things: windmills, geothermal energy and solar energy.”

Al said that carbon overload is just as big a factor in other crises outside of the climate crisis. “The overdependence of carbon based fuels is not only affecting the climate crisis, but is also affecting the economical crisis and national security crisis,” said Gore.

In his concluding statements, Gore compared the naysayers of climate control to those in the 1960’s that doubted man ever having a chance to step foot on the moon and urged young people to get involved in the green business. “I can remember being in high school in 1963 hearing President John F. Kennedy saying that he wanted to put a man on the moon.” “People laughed, then six years later Neil Armstrong stepped foot on the moon and that’s what I feel will happen with climate control.”

The 45^th Vice President’s new book was released November 3rd, 'Our Choice: A Plan to Solve the Climate Crisis'. The book was a three year follow up to “An Inconvenient Truth.” Our Choice gives readers a menu of choices regarding renewable energy and talks about the challenges of these choices politically. The earnings of his latest work will go to The Alliance for Climate Protection, a non-profit organization fashioned by Gore after his highly acclaimed Repower America speech in 2008. Allies of the organization include Bill Nye the Science Guy.

Al Gore was honored with the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize for his “efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change”. Gore won an Oscar for his 2006 global warming documentary, An Inconvenient Truth.
