Ally Maize and Fellow Green Teens Thank Former Vice President for Spreading Environmental Awareness
Los Angeles, CA - November 16, 2009 - Former Vice President Al Gore's commitment to spreading environmental awareness has inspired millions of people to rethink how their individual actions impact the planet.

After watching "An Inconvenient Truth" at the young age of 15, Maize was inspired to promote green living and sustainable education amongst her peers, and has grown the Green Youth Movement into a formidable force in the community. To thank the former vice president for inspiring the Green Youth Movement, Maize and her fellow green teens presented Mr. Gore with The Green Youth Movement Inspiration Award 2009 last Thursday, November 12 at the Saban Theater in Los Angeles.
