When PEOPLE heard that Al Gore is planning to stay up all night Friday with Duran Duran for a 24-hour telethon on the climate crisis, we couldn't resist asking the former Vice President: "So, are you, ahem, hungry like the wolf for action on climate change?"
"Is this a literary reference?" Gore asked.
Gently reminded that it is, actually, the British band's hit single from 1982, Gore – who counts among his personal friends the likes of Bono and Jon Bon Jovi – quickly recovered. And with a nod toward another hot artist taking part in the Nov. 13 and 14 global broadcast of 24 Hours of Reality and Live Earth that is meant to pressure global leaders to act, Gore countered to PEOPLE: "I'm hoping, in the words of Hozier, they'll take me to church."
But seriously, there's nothing funny about the urgency of the climate crisis, Gore said. And with the world's leaders gathering in Paris on Nov. 30 for the United Nations Conference on Climate Change, Gore was gathering forces of his own – star-studded ones – to press the case for immediate action on reducing pollution and investing in clean, renewable energy.

"So, are you, ahem, hungry like the wolf for action on climate change?" God spare us. Give me a list of every artist that attends this Global Warming Concert and I'll never see them again.

The BS that is GW has got to stop.
To all GW believers I ask one question. If Al Gore truly believes that GW will kill us all, wouldn't he jump at every chance to debate people, to spread the word, etc etc? Why has he NEVER done that? (Rhetorical question, BTW)

Al Gore is so out of touch with reality, it's not even funny....any more:
"Man-made global warming pollution now traps as much extra heat energy in the atmosphere every day as would be released by 400,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs going off every 24 hours," said Gore.

I cannot wait for the “Gore Effect” to happen once this kicks off.
If memory serves, every time Gore has made a speech about Gorebull Warming(tm) the city involved has recorded some of the coldest weather on record. There may have been the odd snow storm, too.
