Al Gore's Presentation On Global Warming
Al Gore's presentation on global warming was just shown on Link TV. I am sure it will be repeated often. Link TV does that. You need to see this no matter where you stand on global warming, you just simply need to see this.

I will do everything in my power to make that man President again.

Global Warning (Four Hour Special)
When Nature speaks, it’s time to listen. Record hurricanes, rising waters, melting glaciers and migrating species are sending a warning, but is anyone paying attention?

In Link TV’s Special, Global Warning, we turn over our entire primetime schedule to comedic sketches, shorts, documentaries and special guests focusing on the crisis taking place across our planet. From climate change to the legacy of the Exxon Valdez oil spill, Global Warning helps viewers separate the facts from the fiction in these environmental battles.

PART 1 (First Two Hours)
In the first segment, Link TV features Al Gore's Presentation on Global Warming, an eye-opening multi-media presentation about the catastrophic effects fast approaching if we continue emitting greenhouse gases at today’s rate. Using meticulous research, Gore takes us step by step through the latest scientific research and shows us how business decisions are driving bad environmental policy.

Then, Hollywood stars and environmental activists unite to sound the call about global warming. In a star-studded revue of comic sketches and music, Earth to America is the most entertaining environmental program in history. We present clips featuring Martin Short and Robert Kennedy, Jr.

Throughout the special, our host, Mark Hertsgaard, Political Correspondent and author of "Earth Odyssey: Around the World In Search of Our Environmental Future," explores environmental solutions with Randy Hayes, Founder of the Rainforest Action Network and Director of Sustainability for the City of Oakland California.

PART 2 (Second Two Hours)
What happens when a society puts its economy before all else, allowing businesses to dictate the terms of how we use the planet? In two startling documentaries, The Sierra Club Chronicles: The Day the Water Died and Suzuki Speaks: The Web of Life we examine how our values are impacting the environment.

Joining the conversation in our studios is Carl Pope, Executive Director of the Sierra Club and Sierra Club Chronicle’s host.

Program Details Al Gore's Presentation on Global Warming
Length: 01:00 Type of program: Current Affairs

Al Gore's Presentation on Global Warming is part of the Link TV Special - Global Warning. Click here for more information and broadcast times.

When Al Gore spoke at the UN’s World Environment Day in San Francisco, he wove humor, stunning visuals, startling facts and even an episode of “The Simpsons” into his presentation. The goal? To wake up Americans to the catastrophic effects of global warming.

For the first time on television, Link TV presents Al Gore’s presentation on global warming, a powerful case for reversing the effects of green house gases before it is too late. Using meticulous research, Gore takes us step by step through the latest scientific research and shows us how business decisions are driving bad environmental policy.

Both cautionary and inspiring, the man who was almost president says the story on global warming is not over. Gore reminds us, “political will is a renewable resource.”
