I saw Al Gore's film about global warming. It is personal and convincing. Gore sees the burning of fossil fuels as increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere. As a result, the atmosphere is retaining more of the sun's heat. Temperature is rising. Glaciers are receding. Polar caps are melting. Ocean water is warming and driving hurricanes. Gore links Katrina to global warming. He compares his warning to that of the Nazi threat before World War II and to the warning of the effects of smoking. He invokes Carl Sagan's pale blue dot as an image of the smallness of our planet and its vulnerability. Man has become a force of nature with the capacity for implementing destructive climate changes unless he alters old habits. I am sympathetic to Al Gore's cause, At the same time, there is another inconvenient truth. This is the truth of 9/11 and the fact that we are better off with a Republican government as long as there are Muslim extremists whose goal it is to destroy the United States. These fanatics do not differentitate between our political parties. They would kill us all. George W. Bush has defended and continues to defend America. If Bin Laden and al Qaeda have such little regard for human life, they are certainly impervious to the effects of global warming. 100 GREATEST MOVIES http://jimcolyer.com/papers/entry?id=28
Never heard of it. But I do believe in global warming, though, for what it's worth. This film sounds like a good bit of scientific evidence, but that's just me.
I'm an environmental major, so I saw this movie on opening night. A lot of the facts may seem exaggerated, but I can guarantee you, they are not. The facts didn't surprise me, but hearing those talk about it walking out of the theater, it was eye opening for them. It's the kind of stuff you don't hear about on your nightly news.
Well what are you going to do with yourself? Everything you read, see, or hear is propaganda in one form or another. Because when a message is conveid, you're obviously going to give out your message.
