Amazon.com: The Assault on Reason: Books: Al Gore:
A bit strange to post an Amazon "article", I know. There are no affiliate codes here though, just some insightful comments from Al Gore, such as:
"How do you spur people to action in a crisis like this without using fear?
"Gore: I often open the slideshow by talking about the 'climate crisis.' The English meaning of the word 'crisis' conveys alarm, but the Chinese and Japanese expressions use two characters together: the first means danger, but the second means opportunity. The animations do help to convey some of that sense of danger--but the opportunities are enormous. We are beginning to see companies taking advantage of the new markets that are emerging as they innovate and put to market the technologies that we need to solve this crisis. Some have become ubiquitous, like the hybrid electric engine and compact fluorescent light bulb. There are thousands of opportunities like this all around us if governments will show the type of bold leadership that we need--and work with industry to exploit these opportunities."
