PALO ALTO, Calif. — Former Vice President Al Gore, newly named co-winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, said day he hopes the honor will "elevate global consciousness" about the challenges of global warming.
Gore, whose documentary An Inconvenient Truth, won an Academy Award earlier this year, was awarded the prize earlier in the day along with an international network of scientists for spreading awareness of man-made climate change and laying the foundations for counteracting it.
