I was awed and delighted by the news on my welcome screen this morning. Congratulations to Al Gore, who, along with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change headed by Rajendra K. Pachauri of India, won the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize. Gore plans to donate one hundred percent of his proceeds from the award to the Alliance for Climate Protection.
Gore has been an outspoken advocate for our environment since the late 1970s, and I agree with his warning that the negative impact we’re having on our planet is a great threat to the peace of the future. This award makes sense to me. It’s also gratifying when the rest of the world recognizes the positive efforts and accomplishments of a U.S. citizen.
Have I mentioned before that Gore’s an Aries? =)
You have Al Gore Stickers, don’t you.
I have at least one. It’s too big for a Moleskine though.
On this … I would not challenge you..
Show me someone hugging a tree, and I’ll show you an Aries … or a drunk. Just kidding. We Virgos are very earth minded, too. I w3as very happy to hear of Al’s prize, he deserved it. It is sure something George can’t take away from him. Isn’t Monday the BLOG OUT for the environment?
