Global warming tour to end at GW

Weeks after Al Gore stopped by, global warming activist Laurie David and Grammy Award winner Sheryl Crow will end the “Stop Global Warming College Tour” at GW on Earth Day.

The tour kicks off on April 9 at SMU and continues for two weeks across the Southeastern U.S. “in a bus using bio-diesel fuel,” according to a release. The tour ends at the Smith Center on April 22 at 4 p.m.

The event will feature a 90-minute presentation with “remarks by David, a short performance by Crow, clips from An Inconvenient Truth, humorous clips from top comedians, and a dialogue with students.”

Since GW’s presentation falls on Earth Day and concludes the tour, “special guests will join” David and Crow “for a celebration of Earth Day.” The two will appear on Capitol Hill the next day.

“The more I learn about global warming, the more I know that we all have to do something to be a part of the solution. I am thrilled Laurie & I have the opportunity to go on the road and combine our efforts to educate the next generation on how they can make a difference,” said Crow in the release.

Laurie David is the founder of stopglobalwarming.org and author of “Stop Global Warming: The Solution is You!”
