Al Gore is a hero.
No one could be a more deserving winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. Global warming is the most urgent issue of our time.
What could make a bigger statement than Nobel Peace Prize-winner Al Gore following the grand tradition of Martin Luther King and Gandhi and using civil disobedience to help create a clean energy future?
Winning the Nobel Peace Prize is an amazing accomplishment. We are all impressed and inspired. Now let's hope that Al Gore will take his own advice and join us as we take a stand for the future.
Congratulations.
You more than deserve the Nobel Peace Prize. You are a global warming hero.
Now I want you arrested and thrown in jail.
Seriously. I want you to join Rainforest Action Network executive director Michael Brune on November 16 in an act of nonviolent direct action to stop the construction of coal-fired power plants.
You yourself said that you couldn't understand why young people were not standing in front of bulldozers to stop coal.
The truth is, they are. But instead of standing in front of bulldozers, they are trying to keep the bulldozers from arriving in the first place by cutting off the funding major banks give to the coal industry.
On November 16, RAN is planning a major day of action targeting Citi and Bank of America to demand an end to coal financing.
You should join them, with your Nobel around your neck, and get arrested.
You can do it. You're plenty young, and you know it is the right thing to do.
I hope to see you there.
