NEW YORK—Nobel Peace Prize winner and former
US Vice President Al Gore will publish a follow-up to his global
warming awareness bestseller "An Inconvenient Truth" on November
3.
The book will be called "Our Choice" and will
describe solutions to global warming, the environmental crusader
and US publisher Rodale Inc. said in a statement on Tuesday.
"‘An Inconvenient Truth’ reached millions of
people with the message that the climate crisis is threatening
the future of human civilization and that it must and can be
solved," Gore said.
"Now that the need for urgent action is even
clearer with the alarming new findings of the last three years,
it is time for a comprehensive global plan that actually solves
the climate crisis. ‘Our Choice’ will answer that call," he
said.
Gore was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in
2007 for his work to raise awareness about climate change and
the same year also won an Academy Award for a documentary based
on his slide show lecture and book "An Inconvenient Truth."
He said he will donate all proceeds from "Our
Choice" to the Alliance for Climate Protection.
