Watch Al Gore in live webcast
So, there’s two organization that are really worth knowing about. The first is Al Gore’s most recent publicity machine that’s being used as the public face of his efforts to fight global warming and that WeCanSolveIt.org, there’s a pretty decent chance you’ve seen some of their commercials.
The other is the Energy Action Coalition. This is a youth-run organization dedicated to engaging students in the political process to demand a clean and just energy future. Find out more about them at EnergyActionCoalition.org, they’re good people.
So this leads to the fact that these two great groups are coming together when Al Gore conducts a live webcast for the PowerVote campaign. PowerVote is the EAC Get-Out-The-Vote campaign they’re running with their goal set at getting 1 million youth to pledge to vote for clean energy this November.
Even if you’ve never actually heard of these groups and you’re not a college student you should still be interested for these three reasons: 1.Al Gore 2.global warming and 3.Al Gore & other people coming together to try and do something about global warming.
Sign up to watch the live webcast on Oct. 29th at 8pm EST.
