With the fate of our planet arguably hanging in the balance, An Inconvenient Truth may prove to be one of the most important and prescient documentaries of all time. As he jokingly refers to himself, "former President-elect" Al Gore felt an urgent personal calling to draw attention--as he had been doing throughout his political career--to the increasingly desperate crisis of global warming, and this riveting documentary is basically a filmed version (by respected TV director Davis Guggenheim) of the PowerPoint lecture that Gore has presented (by his own estimate, well over 1,000 times) to attentive audiences all over the world. Considering Gore's amiable, low-key approach to charts, graphs, statistics, and photographs that leave no room for doubt regarding the reality (not "theory") of global warming as Earth's ultimate environmental crisis, many viewers will be surprised by just how fascinating and convincing this no-frills film really is. As we learn about the milestone events that shaped his character (including his sister's death and young son's near-fatal injuries after being struck by a car), Gore sheds the stiff demeanor of his 2000 presidential campaign and impresses us as a man with a mission, transcending partisan politics with an impassioned plea for common sense, ethical forthrightness, and passionate purpose in reversing the harmful effects of global warming through personal and political responsibility. Some may accuse Gore of exploiting global warming as a Democratic platform, but his honest conviction regarding this "inconvenient truth" (i.e. overwhelming evidence of global warming that's troublesome to those whose interests are threatened by Gore's irrefutable message) is likely to silence all but the most obtusely stubborn detractors. By taking the high road and discreetly avoiding a full-on assault against the George W. Bush administration (which has steadfastly avoided "the inconvenient truth" with obfuscating spin control and policies favoring the oil industry), Gore effectively rises above political differences with a stern but hopeful eye toward a better future for our children.--Jeff Shannon |

A convenient lie |
Just tell the truth!!! Mr. Gore's talking points are exaggerations. He has misquoted scientists. Especially the melt down of Greenland theory. Read the author you misquoted. He said IF the ice ever melted, the Ocean would rise a few inches not feet.
ABC news has exposed more of Mr. Gore's lies. He refused to answer ABC News of lying to the world. They found Mr. Gore's real-time film of the melting of the Ice shelf a BOLD face theft from a scene from a recent Sci-Fi movie. He and his movie production refused to talk to ABC News about the theft and re-doctoring of a computer made - special effects scene. Folks what you saw was not real. It was from Hollywood and not from an area where global warming is affecting.
"NPR has aired a report about the results of 3,000 floating, temperature and salinity profiling robots deployed by the Argo collaboration in 2003. After five years, they finally sent us comprehensive data about the heat content of the oceans." The finding by the most recognized Science group says the Oceans are actually cooling! The Ocean is actually ten years off from being as warm as Gore's group is telling us.
The polar ice cap has expanded an amazing 25 miles this past year. Why all the deception? Why are we being lied to?
Mr. Gore you ignore fact and evidence that disproves you. You make fun of people who have decades more information of green house gases and the world than you will ever have. You got a peace prize for this?! Are we all so blind ? It is time for you to stop scaring the public. WE - ALL have to treat GOD's earth with respect. Your "Crying wolf" is only hurting those who are trying to teach people how to care for this GOD given gift! |

The Greatest SPOOF since "This is Spinal Tap" |
|
UNBELIEVABLE...actually...that's exactly right...this is a spoof. I can't believe Al Gore would talk like this if he wasn't kidding. If you do the research, you'll find that the globe has been cooling(!!!) for some time...get a clue peeps! |

SEE THIS DVD! It's easier to watch than you think. |
Long before his Vice Presidency, Al Gore was bringing the 'news' about global warming to colleges and other large venues around the US, and this dvd is essentially a class on global warming. I was not too eager to sit through a gloom and doom film, but this dvd was much easier to watch than I thought it would be. It presents simple facts and diagrams that show how we have come to our current world state, and where we are surely going at this rate. The answers may not be simple or easy, but they are certainly possible, and I would recommend this dvd to anyone at any age.
