Inconvenient Youth Tours the U.S. to Raise Awareness of Global Warming
SACRAMENTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Inconvenient Youth, a non-profit, non-partisan network for and by teens, is touring 36 cities in the United States with Buena Vista Records artists KSM to raise awareness of global warming. Today, more than 1,000 inner-city youth will attend an Inconvenient Youth presentation and enjoy a KSM performance at Hiram Johnson High School in Sacramento.

“By becoming a member of Inconvenient Youth, teens can learn how to effectively educate others about global warming,” said Inconvenient Youth founder Mary Doerr, a high school senior. “With this tour we hope to inspire and motivate young people to rally their peers and hometown communities to fight climate change. It’s been amazing to see such a strong reception to our efforts so far, and we’ve only just begun.”

Working with Disney and KSM, the Inconvenient Youth tour route will align closely with the tour schedule of the 2008 Tour of Gymnastics Superstars, a sports and music event featuring the country’s most celebrated gymnasts and some of Disney’s hottest young recording artists.

Inconvenient Youth was founded and is driven by a team of four teenagers based in Menlo Park, Calif. The non-profit network trains teens to teach a youth-focused version of the “An Inconvenient Truth” presentation originally created by former United States Vice President Al Gore.
