Climate Conference Returns to SF This Month With Al Gore as Keynote
SF Climate Week is gearing up to be a landmark event, with organizers expecting a record 25,000 attendees at this year's conference. Kicking off on April 18, the event will feature Al Gore as the keynote speaker, known for his impactful documentary, An Inconvenient Truth. Climatebase, the nonprofit behind the conference, emphasizes the significance of this gathering, especially in light of the political climate following Trump's return to office. Gore's involvement is intended to galvanize collective action and foster innovative ideas for tackling climate issues. He recently shared his belief that the U.
S. is more resilient in the face of political challenges than many might think, noting that emissions fell during Trump’s first term despite his administration's rhetoric. The conference will be held at various locations, aiming to create a collaborative atmosphere for attendees. Gore's presence highlights the urgency of climate action at a time when the world feels increasingly divided and overwhelmed. With hopes to leave participants feeling energized, SF Climate Week stands as a crucial platform for climate advocacy and solutions.
