Al Gore: Attend House Parties, Sign Postcards, Build Political Will

[Guest guest]

The following message is from Al Gore, as stated on his website

http://www.algore.com :

 

I've been incredibly gratified by the response to " An Inconvenient

Truth. " I'm extremely proud of all the work the team put into the

film and it feels like it came at a crucial time. But now comes the

hard work. We have to take this message to Washington. And we can't

do it without you.

 

Yes, the new majority in Congress will be much more receptive on the

importance of global warming. That's the good news. But I know from

personal experience that the only thing that will make Washington

really take notice and do more than give lip service to the problem

of global warming is the prospect of millions of committed citizens

taking action. It's time to join together and make that happen. Can

you help?

 

First, I'm asking folks to hold house parties, in thousands of homes

across the nation, to show the film and spread the word. We're doing

the first wave on Saturday, December 16. Can you host a party? Or

attend a party that one of your neighbors is hosting?

 

Second, I'm asking everybody, whether you attend a party or not, to

sign a postcard to your representatives, so that I can take a

million postcards and messages to Washington in January and present

them to the new Congress. (Sign the post card at

We have to build the political will to do what has to be done.

Luckily, in America, political will is a renewable resource.

 

Thank you,
