Dear Friend,
Yesterday, former Vice President Al Gore challenged America to reset the way we make our energy choices. It was a powerful, inspiring speech. Watch it here.
He spoke about amazing opportunities -- and how making the correct choices will benefit our environment, our national security, our economy and our energy bills.
Al Gore has issued a powerful challenge: producing 100 percent of our electricity from renewable energy and truly clean carbon-free sources within 10 years. It's achievable, affordable and necessary. And we need to make this break from past habits and old ways of thinking. As he summarized so powerfully:
"We're borrowing money from China to buy oil from the Persian Gulf to burn it in ways that destroy the planet. Every bit of that's got to change."
Watch it here.
In the past months he's been hosting a series of solutions summits with engineers, scientists, CEOs, and financiers. This speech pulled together some of the best thinking from those talks -- and highlighted what we each can do to end our dangerous addiction to fossil fuels and solve the climate crisis.
Thousands were present to hear him speak and I know that we'll be hearing a lot about his challenge in the days ahead. Be among the first to take on this challenge.
Sincerely,
Cathy Zoi
