Climate Reality Project: English


22,129 Live Views 87 In Crowd 24 Events...24 Time Zones...24 Hours of Reality
Droughts, floods, heat waves, insect outbreaks, wildfires, sea level rise – we are encountering the reality of our changing climate every day. Five years after the theatrical release of An Inconvenient Truth, Nobel Laureate and former Vice President Al Gore will host an international event that brings the world together in a critical moment of global consciousness to deliver the message: The climate crisis is real, and it’s already happening.

Spanning 24 hours, 24 time zones and multiple languages, 24 Hours of Reality features a new multimedia presentation about climate change created by Vice President Gore and delivered by an army of personally trained slide show Presenters from around the world. Beginning in Mexico City and proceeding westward around the globe, 24 Hours of Reality offers a round-the-clock snapshot of the global climate crisis in real time, sharing unique perspectives on the crisis from Tonga to Cape Verde, Mexico City to Kotzebue, Alaska, Jakarta to London. With one event scheduled in each time zone at 7 p.m. local time, the entire 24 hours will also be streamed live online from start to finish, culminating in a final presentation by Vice President Gore in New York at 7 pm.

By focusing the world’s attention on the climate crisis for an entire day, 24 Hours of Reality is intended to create a global movement and inspire international action to solve the climate crisis the other 364 days of the year. At each event, we will highlight the projects and initiatives of in- country organizations and NGOs and offer information and opportunities for people to learn more and to get involved with ongoing activities in their own communities. This global discussion will lead to action to solve the climate crisis.

WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHEN, WHY

WHO: Al Gore , 23 specially trained Presenters from The Climate Project , YOU
WHAT: 24 Hours of Reality
WHEN: September 14-15, 2011
WHERE:Online and in villages, towns, cities, and countries across the globe
WHY: Because the climate crisis is real and it has already begun. Because what we thought was our children’s problem is in fact our own.

Special interest groups are spending huge amounts of money to convince people that climate change isn’t real while people around the world are already experiencing its effects.
Where do you stand? Choose Reality.

5. Thanks for the kick. I was impressed by the gentlemen who spoke from Boulder, did
you happen to catch that one? His presentation I believe was especially well put together,
he presents the 'red herrings' of the Republican deniers in Congress so well. I hope his
part goes viral on youtube.

Great effort by Gore, kudos to him and all involved.
