EXCERPT:
GORE: “You know, the solution to political despair is political action. And for those in the Republican Party and the Democratic Party and independents who love American democracy and who want to preserve our capacity to govern ourselves and solve our problems, now's the time to get active. You know, there's a mental health crisis around the world, Jake, that we hear people talking about. I think that one of the main reasons for that is that young people look at the fact that we are not yet solving the climate crisis or dealing with some of these other challenges. And we hear this word thrown around, 'poly-crisis.' Well, solving the climate crisis is a poly-solution. We know what to do. We have the means to do it, and we have to make sure that we make the right political choices in our democracy to enable ourselves to make the right choices."
