Al Gore on ‘The Future: Six Drivers of Global Change’
ListenFormer Vice President AL GORE has a new book out, inspired by his restless quest for understanding of the factors reshaping our world. It’s called “The Future: Six Drivers of Global Change,” and it ties together global climate change – which Gore explored in his best-selling “An Inconvenient Truth” book and film – to economic globalization, emerging political powers and digital revolutions. The 2000 Democratic presidential candidate and Nobel Peace Prize laureate joins us after speaking across the street at the National Constitution Center, and we’ll also ask about the recent sale of Current TV to Al-Jazeera.
