Al Gore – Our Choice: A Plan to Solve the Climate Crisis

⁂ Winner of the 2011 Apple Design Award ⁂

Al Gore's Our Choice will change the way we read books. And quite possibly change the world. In this interactive app, Al Gore surveys the causes of global warming and presents groundbreaking insights and solutions already under study and underway that can help stop the unfolding disaster of global warming.

Our Choice melds the vice president's narrative with photography, interactive graphics, animations, and more than an hour of engrossing documentary footage. A new, groundbreaking interface allows you to experience that content seamlessly. Pick up and explore anything you see in the book; zoom out to the visual table of contents and quickly browse though the chapters; reach in and explore data-rich interactive graphics.

100% of Al Gore's earnings from Our Choice will be donated to the nonprofit Alliance for Climate Protection.
