An Inconvient Truth

In his global warming documentary, Al Gore asks the just question "Should we prepare for other threats besides terrorists?" After seeing this film (and I would hope actually before), no one can deny that the answer to this question is a definite YES. The facts, studies, and images that Gore has gathered are really startling. This film, shot in the form of Gore giving a talk to a lecture hall, outlines the immense need of the United States and the world to make some serious changes in regard to environmental policy. Global warming is leading to distastrous results for the world in the form of the melting of the polar ice caps and glaciers around the world which in turn raises the temperature and level of the oceans, which in turn throws off the eco-system of the oceans and gets rid of more inhabitable places on Earth. The information in the film is extremely well-organized and well-presented and I would definitely say that everyone needs to watch this film and understand the implications of global warming. Gore for Environmentalist, 2007!
