Al Gore pens sequel to ‘Inconvenient Truth’

Nobel laureate Al Gore's follow-up to his best-selling "An Inconvenient Truth," originally planned for last spring, is coming out this fall with a new title.

Publisher Rodale Books announced Tuesday that the former vice president's book, "Our Choice," will be released in November, printed on 100 percent recycled paper. The book, which proposes solutions to the global warming crisis documented in "Inconvenient Truth," was called "The Path to Survival" when first announced two years ago.

"'An Inconvenient Truth' reached millions of people with the message that the climate crisis is threatening the future of human civilization and that it must and can be solved," the former vice president said in a statement released by Rodale. "Now that the need for urgent action is even clearer with the alarming new findings of the last three years, it is time for a comprehensive global plan that actually solves the climate crisis. 'Our Choice' will answer that call."

Gore will reportedly donate the proceeds from "Our Choice" to his foundation, the Alliance for Climate Protection.

"An Inconvenient Truth" was published in 2006 and topped the New York Times' bestseller list. The film version won an Academy Award for Best Documentary in 2007 and grossed more than $50 million worldwide, modest for Hollywood but a blockbuster among documentaries. Gore also finished the year by winning the Nobel Peace Prize.
