CNN: When I was in fourth grade, I wrote Vice President Al Gore a letter about my passion for saving the planet. I was ecstatic when he wrote back. I believed then, as I do now, that he is a strong voice for science and the environment. Since writing that letter as a 10-year-old, I've earned degrees in atmospheric science and environmental engineering. At the same time, I've learned to value the role that science plays in informing public policy. Meanwhile, Al Gore has become the most visible champion...

Washington Post: Ezra Klein: In 2005, when An Inconvenient Truth came out, I remember that the hope was we could keep the carbon load in the atmosphere to 350 parts per million, and the fear was we would hit 400ppm. Now weve hit 400ppm and people are hoping to avoid 450ppm. This seems to be getting out of hand, and fast. Al Gore: We have already crossed the 400 parts per million mark.
