"The climate crisis is a reality, and we are seeing its impacts in extreme weather all around the world. Yet much as tobacco companies once misled the public about the dangers of smoking, oil and coal companies and their allies are now deceiving the public about climate change. They have nearly unlimited resources to sow doubt, but we have one critical advantage: Reality is on our side."
Along with the name change, today we also announced a 24-hour event with one clear goal: to bring the facts about the climate crisis into the mainstream by engaging everyone in a conversation about how to solve it. Along with Vice President Gore, 23 Climate Presenters from around the globe will be center stage - giving a new slide show from Vice President Gore in each of 24 locations.

Vice President Gore helped create this video to explain where we are going. You can watch it here:

We hope you're as excited as we are. Remember, though our name is changing, your role as Climate Presenters is not. We will still depend on each of you to be out there giving the slide show in your communities. The audio recording of Mr. Gore's conference call is available in the Presenter Portal, in the Presenter News section:http://theclimateproject.org/presenter_tools/presenter_news/0
Thanks for your continued dedication!
