Former vice president Al Gore shares his concerns on the pressing issue of global warming in this documentary. A long-time environmental activist, Gore first became aware of evidence on global warming in the 1970s, and since leaving public office he has become a passionate advocate for large- and small-scale changes in our laws and lifestyles that could help alleviate this crisis.

    This movie cointained some interesting facts delivered in a rather boring college classroom style. I felt like I should be taking notes because there might be a test at the end!

    Very interesting and thought provoking. What this movie does is wake us to our surroundings. One melting glacier field that delivers water to 60 million people is nearing its end. What then? Global warming is not a "swindle". People need to get beyond the political to a will to do the right thing for our children and their children's sakes.

    Yes   |   No
