"... ten years later we can still observe the signs of a climate crisis around us, but there are great reasons for optimism... market entities in many places in the world are being rewarded for using renewable energy sources, but time is of course still running and the urgency has never been greater high. That's why I think there couldn't be a better time to release the film, and I'd like to meet everyone behind it, starting with Al Gore.”
After the screening, a panel discussion began. In its framework, Al Gore spoke about the goals that Apple achieved in the field of using renewable energy sources, and stated that it is important to know that Apple in the United States on 100% uses these resources.
