Former Vice President Al Gore said on Friday that the unintended consequence of President Trump's resolute rejections of climate change is that more people are demanding that we take action to protect the planet, reports CNN.
The backdrop: Gore— who was in Atlanta on Friday to meet with climate change activists and expressed his support of the Green New Deal — besmirched Trump in his 2017 documentary: "An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power," and called the president's abandonment of the Paris climate agreement "indefensible."
