Former Vice-President Al Gore speaks at Senate Foreign Relations Committee
Former Vice-President Al Gore speaks at a Climate Change hearing and says that “we must take bold action now” in order to find solutions for our climate crisis which will lead to solutions for our economic and national security problems as well. We are buying foreign oil and using burning it in ways that destroy our planet. Gore says that “the first step is already before us. I urge this congress to quickly pass the entirety of President Obama’s Recovery Package.” (1:25)
