The prospect of watching a former Vice-President of the United States give a “PowerPoint presentation” probably does not sound too exciting. If I told you that the VP was Al Gore and his presentation was on (yawn) global warming, that may not help peak your excitement much. “Sounds boring” you’d say. But you’d be wrong. From everything I’ve read and seen — and from what people keep telling me for months now — Al Gore’s touring “PowerPoint presentation” on global warming is not to be missed. A serious presentation that’s got the three key elements: (1) A crucially important (and controversial) topic, (2) an engaging delivery, and (3) visuals that are compelling, stunning and backup, and enhance the message.

“I have PowerPoint envy”
After witnessing Al Gore’s live presentation in Seattle earlier this spring (not the movie), Eric de Place from Northwest Environment Watch exclaimed: “I have PowerPoint Envy.”

Except, it wasn’t PowerPoint. It was Keynote from Apple. Of course, more important was the the agency actually creating the presentation. A good read, even if you disagree with every word Gore says.
