GOTO Climate Action Summit - Al Gore, Keynote Speech

May 1, 2020 3:00 pm – 5:00 pm Europe/London

Join former US Vice President Al Gore at our GOTO Climate Action summit

Al Gore pushed the issue of the climate crisis to the front of the global dialogue. His documentary and bestseller An Inconvenient Truth delivered a powerful warning about the threat of environmental catastrophe. In 2007, Gore was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, along with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, for 'informing the world of the dangers posed by climate change.'

Now, as the world deals with the consequences of another looming but long-ignored threat, the 45th vice-president of the US is returning to Oxford, virtually, to argue that we must seize the opportunity to transform the global economy.

He will address MBA students at our GOTO Climate action summit, the finale of the Oxford MBA’s GOTO programme, which challenges the next generation of business leaders to create practical solutions to the most complex global problems.

Gore is the co-founder and chairman of Generation Investment Management, and the founder and chairman of The Climate Reality Project, a nonprofit devoted to solving the climate crisis. He is also a senior partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers and a member of Apple Inc.’s board of directors.
