"Ten years later we are still talking about climate change," says OneRepublic lead singer/songwriter Ryan Tedder."Former Vice President Al Gore has again made a film that inspires one to get involved and do something for our planet. It was an honor to create a song with the legendaryT Bone Burnettthat speaks to the theme of this movie that the 'truth' leads to 'power' when it comes to standing up and helping to create change."
"Music can often move us in ways that words alone cannot," said former Vice President Al Gore, adding, "Ryan TedderandT Bone Burnetthave written and produced a beautiful and powerfully inspiring song forAn Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Powerabout how thetruthabout manmade climate change is itself turning into thepowerhumanity needs to solve the crisis our world is facing with courage, conviction, and faith in one another.I am so grateful that these two great artists were able to capturewhat Mahatma Ghandi called 'truth-force' intheir incredible and moving song,'Truth to Power.' It's an instant classic and, for me, has been an earworm since I first heard Ryan sing it."
"Genesis2:15says that 'The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it,'" says T Bone Burnett. "As a Christian, I have to say that our withdrawal from the Paris Accord is tantamount to taking an ax to the Tree of Life and an outright rejection of God's Word. If you care for our beautiful blue planet, this film makes obvious the actual, catastrophic effects of climate change. I pray this film will open the eyes of my brothers and sisters who have been DECEIVED into believing that therealityof rising temperatures, mega storms, droughts, glaciers melting, and water rushing into the streets of our cities is a hoax.This is wickedness in high places and evidence of a death wish."
Paramount Pictures and Participant Media present an Actual Films Production of "An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth To Power." A decade after AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH brought climate change into the heart of popular culture comes the riveting and rousing follow-up thatshows just how close we are to a real energy revolution.Vice President Al Gore continues his tireless fight traveling around the world training an army ofclimate champions and influencing internationalclimate policy.
