Climate Reality Project

Our mission is to educate our friends, neighbors, and communities on the threats of the climate crisis and to motivate them to take action in the fight against it. As many of our members are in the Rotary club, we would like to give back with our presentations. My chapter has Climate Reality Project speakers trained personally by Al Gore. And it is my team's job to carry out our mission by giving informative and uplifting presentations to those around me, an example of which can be found in the following TED Talk by Mr. Gore: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVfgkFaswn4 . Our presentation answers three questions about climate change. Do we have to change? Can we change? Do we have the will to change?
