NEW DELHI: Ex-US vice-president Al Gore will be in India in the first week of December to conduct a two-day training programme on climate change.

His aim: To educate young Indians on environment and the dangers of global warming. Al Gore hopes these youngsters will sensitise people about the dangers of climate change.

He wants the youth to carry his message to dusty towns and villages of India and make corporates aware of their responsibilities. Al Gore Foundation has tied up with The Energy Research Institute (Teri) for the programme.

Teri executive director RK Pachauri is in New York to tie up the details. “The dates have not been finalised, though it will be in the first week of December,” he said.

This is wonderful news because the people of India especially in those dusty towns need this information badly to feel empowered. It is precisely in the areas of the world feeling the brunt of the climate changes without contributing the most to them that the people who are mostly poor not only have little to no information about what climate change even is and what it does, they are powerless to address it. So thank you, Mr. Gore through your organization The Climate Project for putting this together. This is the kind of work that to me goes far beyond just being a "president." This goes to the heart of the matter.

for President of the US from India?

I am REALLY starting to think that just ain't gonna happen.

Good information about his global warming efforts. God, I love that guy. I was SO wanting him to run.

4. In another time and place I did too...

Believe me...but he sees the bigger picture and I support that. And this work is absolutely what needs to be done now and is something no president constrained by the usual BS could do. I firmly believe he knows what he is doing and is doing it Brilliantly. But sure, don't wonder why this thread isn't responded to and kicked like other Gore threads... the usuals here don't want people seeing he is going there in December. That's how selfish they are.
