From AAAS website: Former U.S. Vice President and Nobel Peace Prize Winner Al Gore
Al Gore spoke to the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and gave an updated and truncated version of his “Inconvenient Truth” speech. I recommend taking a look at it (you can watch it over breakfast if you’re like me and don’t like to sit and watch videos on your computer… I get restless). I am so duly impressed by what a good speaker Mr. Gore is, and how he brings both passion and intelligence to what he says, only glancing occasionally at his notes on the podium. He gave a strong call in this speech for scientists to get involved in the politics of combatting global warming. It’s a half-hour well spent.
