NowThis + Al Gore: Here’s Why There’s Hope For the PlanetAG: The simplest reason why you should be hopeful is we have the solutions available now. They make economic sense and they’ve long made environmental good sense, so we have the tools. The challenge is there. All we have to do is solve it. We’ve got what we need, why not hope?” Says Gore, speaking candidly on the subject of Climate Change. “Now, in full candor, the remaining question is, how quickly will we solve it? And that matters because we’re doing more damage every day. My message is a hopeful and optimistic one, but people need to know that today we’ll put another 110 million tons of man-made global warming pollution into the atmosphere, and some of it will stay there for one thousand years. But if we could magically stop putting it up there, how long would it take for half of it to fall out? Only 20 years. So we can’t magically stop it all of course, but we can cut way back on the global warming pollution and start the healing process.
