Our Choice:
A Plan to Solve the Global Climate Crisis
 
THIS EVENT IS NOW SOLD OUT

Harvard Book Store is honored to welcome former Vice President and climate change activist AL GORE for a conversation about his new book Our Choice: A Plan to Solve the Global Climate Crisis.

In his follow-up to the best selling An Inconvenient Truth, the Nobel Peace Prize—winning former vice president outlines a comprehensive strategy for combating the impending global climate crisis, while at the same time addressing long-standing issues of global poverty and inequality.

"It is now abundantly clear that we have at our fingertips all of the tools we need to solve the climate crisis. The only missing ingredient is collective will.

Properly understood, the climate crisis is an unparalleled opportunity to finally and effectively address many persistent causes of suffering and misery that have long been neglected, and to transform the prospects of future generations, giving them a chance to live healthier, more prosperous lives as they continue their pursuit of happiness." —Al Gore, from the introduction to Our Choice
