CLIMATE REALITY PROJECT ANNOUNCES “24 HOURS OF REALITY” EVENT ON CLIMATE CHANGE

“We all know that we have to create a cultural and political consensus that results in a movement of individuals demanding action on climate change,” said former Vice President Gore. “The Climate Reality Project is purpose-built to help spark and fuel such a movement. We are using the power of social media to amplify individual voices and connect people across the globe. Our message is very simple: Enough is enough. Climate change is happening now, and we must act to stop it and seize the opportunities inherent in the solutions.”

“The amount of money spent on propaganda to mislead the public about the reality of climate change is staggering,” said Maggie L. Fox, President and CEO of the Climate Reality Project. “As the social media community knows, the best antidote is to empower people with the facts. We have a scientific consensus around the climate crisis, and with the help of the online community, we can mobilize millions and create the cultural consensus that will be critical to effect change.”
