Al Gore's latest talk and slideshow is brought to us by TED, an acronym for Technology, Entertainment, Design.
In it he argues for "a higher level of consciousness, a change in commitment, a new sense of urgency, a new appreciation for the privilege that we have of undertaking this challenge" of global warming.
We must not just "change the lightbulbs, but change the laws."
He asks the question: How dare we be optimistic? It's worth the 28 minutes to find out why Al Gore thinks the answer should be yes.

I totally agree. Have you had a look at Lester Brown's "Plan B"? This is worth reading, as he really spells out the challenges ahead and where we must focus our attention to find solutions.
Plan B will be weekend reading. Like Green Living. Great minds...
