West Virginians Trained By Al Gore To Present on Climate Change

Charleston resident and WV Environmental Council member Allan Tweddle is now a certified presenter for Al Gores Climate Project.  

Allan spent three days training in Nashville in "an awesome and life altering experience." Allan was invited by Al Gore and his staff to take the training, along with 170 others, including a high school physics teacher from Harpers Ferry.

"The materials and over 300 slides go way beyond his movie, An Inconvenient Truth," Allan said. "And those who dismiss the Climate Projects sound scientific basis and action concepts really arent listening to the message, but are instead trying to shoot the messenger.  The presentation is scientifically correct and executed with very professional graphics."

A couple of the people who have received this training have contacted OVEC, asking to use some of our mountaintop removal photos in their presentations.

Our photos help illustrate the full cycle and heavy toll of our continued over-reliance on burning coal for electricity.

Allans dynamic, educational and inspiring presentation awaits your invitation.

You are strongly encouraged to contact Allan to set up speaking engagements in your community. Call him at (304) 925-9184 or e-mail allantweddle@msn.com
