"for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change.




Al Gore was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1976, 1978, 1980 and 1982 and the U.S. Senate in 1984 and 1990. He wrote the bestsellers Earth in the Balance and An Inconvenient Truth and he is the subject of an Oscar-winning documentary.
