More Gore propaganda for middle school students

Excerpt from this article:

After learning about The Climate Project training program, English decided to write Gore a letter asking to be included.

She was later selected and spent two days getting trained on environmental issues and public speaking.

The project trains participants how to give a slide show presentation similar to the one by Gore that is the central element of the documentary. After the training, participants are encouraged to return to their community to give the presentation or to take an active role in environmental advocacy at the local government level.

Gore took an active role in the training by giving the slideshow presentation to the group and giving an encouraging pep talk at the end of the weekend.

“It was an experience I will remember probably my whole life,” English said. “In person, he’s a very powerful speaker.”

Since the training, English estimates she’s given the presentation close to 30 times and has reached about 2,000 people. She frequently speaks at schools, senior social groups and other events.

Recently, English gave the presentation at Westridge Middle School seven times in one day. She spoke to all the school’s seventh- and eighth-grade science classes.

“That was fantastic,” she said.
