Suzuki & Gore: Less talk, more action

David Suzuki and Al Gore were quite inspiring in Montreal last week at the ‘Less Talk, More Action’ event on Climate Change.

Suzuki knew how to sum things up with alarming statements such as, ‘If we continue fishing the way we do, there won?t be 1 fish left in 2048”.

Al Gore showcased his research with shocking visuals and statistics he updates regularly. He claimed that Winter of 2006-2007 was the hottest in history; an effect of global warming that is slowly killing off polar bears and not to mention, our own human species.

With Suzuki?s speech and Gore’s charismatic presentation, I don?t think there was 1 person who left the room without the desire to make a difference for the environment.

Youth Action Montreal organized the event, hosted by Sara Harmer and activist/singer Sam Roberts.
