An Inconvenient Truth
An Inconvenient Truth – Review
This book is easy to widely read and has some large images to make Al Gore’s case that we had better get our head out of the sand and tackle this problem now, or risk a very different and ever more harsh climate. I closely watched Mr. Gore’s presentation when he eventually came to The Ohio State University 2 yrs ago and was constantly amazed by his passion and committment to currently sharing his message. This book becomes a especially making case and should be widely read by everyone, including the skeptics who have likely been influenced by the misinformation gave by money from companies like Exxon-Mobil. The book illustrates how 0% of 928 peer reviewed, published articles in technical journals reveal doubt as to the cause of global warming, while fifty three per cents of 636 articles in the general press reveal doubt. Do these skeptics actually think they know more about this subject than every scientist who has had a peer reviewed paper announced in the last decade? The saddest part after simply reading this book is the realization that we were so close to having a president who would have been working hard to solve this catastrophe in the effectively making. Earth was in the balance on election day 2000, and we eventually lost good time. Hopefully Al Gore is correct in really saying we still have time to change the course of Global Warming. For good reasons, I agree we should give it our greatest effort.
