"All around the world, the coal industry is in a

But the former US vice-president and climate change crusader admitted to concern over the US losing its role as world leader on international issues, including the North Korean missile crisis. 

"It's a period for the United States where we have to work around President Trump," Mr Gore said. "And on some issues, such as those in foreign policy, that's not easy to do.”
