Our Choice

Al Gore’s Our Choice is an affecting, inspiring call to action for those who want to do their part in solving the climate crisis. Gore, a co-recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007, has led over 30 “Solutions Summits” with respected scientists, engineers and policy experts in his search for answers to environmental issues currently facing our world. His latest book draws heavily on both the conclusions developed in these summits as well as his own independent research. Gore makes an excellent argument for making bold decisions that will pave the way towards our goal of saving the Earth’s climate. Our Choice lays out the strategies he thinks should be the new foundation for worldwide policies, policies that would eventually create new jobs while stimulating the economy in the process. Al Gore uses his 40 years of experience as a student, policymaker, filmmaker, entrepreneur and activist to flesh out a meticulously planned, highly sensible course of action designed to lead us toward a healthier conscience, and a healthier planet. Informative, illuminating and exquisitely written, Our Choice is the blueprint we need for a comprehensive global strategy.

Don't waste your money
November 08, 2009

The comments so far amuse me, so I thought I'd add my own, as apparently one doesn't have to have read this book to comment (since it's not out yet, I gather). I notice that the name calling is the progressives calling the conservatives names; that doesn't seem very "progressive" to me. Really, people, don't we all know that such ad hominem attacks ("uneducated", "right wing nut job tripe") are the resort of people who don't have a good argument? The facts are that there is NO EVIDENCE that any man made activity is warming the planet. There are models and theories, yes, but no EVIDENCE (despite billions of dollars spent in research to try and find the evidence). And the models and theories, by the way, did not predict this little cooling spell we've been going through the last ten years or so, so it should make one wonder how good the models and theories are. The planet may be warming, but the planet has been warming and cooling all by itself for millions of years without any human influence. If you want to put some more money in Al Gore's pocket for writing another "non fiction" book that can't be taught in schools in England due to its numerous scientific inaccuracies, this book may be for you.

Childrens Book Club website
November 04, 2009

Can we please remember that this is a childrens book club website and keep your right-wing terroristic opinions to yourselves. Go back to foxnews.com. Your opinion is welcome there. Or here's an idea...buy some books. This is a shopping website not an opinion blog.

An inconvenient review...
November 03, 2009

You uneducated right winger loons spouting your vitriol and ignorance are of great concern to the educated progressives around you. We want to help you unlearn your denial, but dropping the hate and picking up a book would be far more beneficial for you. I'd like to ask those reviewing this book poorly, while its a pre-release one question.... Even IF mankind is NOT responsible for the increase in C02 and mean temperature (which, we ARE), but assuming we were not, why does that grant us the right to ignore the reality around us? The Earth IS warming, September of 09 was the 2nd warmest month on record since the 19th century. This is concensus that all scientists agree on. Break your political mold worldviews and progress. For the sake of us as a people.

Al Gore to become first 'green' billionaire?
November 03, 2009

I'm offended to see this as a feature selection. I believe in good stewardship of the planet, but when we find out Mr. Gore is poised to become a billionaire because of his investments into "Cap & Trade" technologies... Ish! Can we have back the oil & railroad barons of the late 1800s? Least they felt guilty later on and used their ill-gotten gains to help build public buildings. Al Gore is out for Al Gore, & willing to scare, then exploit the fears of the rest of us.

BALONEY!!!!

No credible evidence and if he REALLY believed it, he'd practice what he preaches. As long as it doesn't affect his comfort, he's all for everyone else sacraficing. SOS in my opinion!!!
