This evening, at the local civilized movie theater, I was witness to An Inconvenient Truth, Al Gore's new movie based on his famous slide show. The movie has been reviewed elsewhere and I do not wish to post a review per se.
However, I will underscore for my readers here the huge importance of this film. It is a must-see for every citizen of the U.S. and the world. No matter what one may think of Al Gore the person (who comes off very well as a naturally intelligent and truly funny person contrary to his former stiff persona), the film contains essentially unassailable truth about what is known about the state of the earth at this time, specifically regarding the phenomenon of global warming.
As for Mr. Gore's presentation, to call it a slide show is inaccurate and a bit demeaning as the graphics are state of the art. They are clear, winsome, even entertaining while at the same time they shock and ultimately stir the soul to seek action.
As Gore makes clear in the film, of nearly one thousand scientific articles written over the last several years, the number of articles casting doubt on global warming is: zero.
I strongly recommend this film. You will respect yourself for seeing it.
