An Inconvenient Truth
An Inconvenient Truth – Review
Gore has been successfully honing this message for years and it shows in this book. It’s a complete essay on global warming: covers all the bases and, instead of completely ignoring the critics, intelligently acknowledges their arguments and refutes them. It’s telling that those who criticize this book or Gore’s film do so only on political grounds. Notice that they always attack the man rather than the message, which is puzzling. Conservatives have had their guy in office and controlled Congress for 6 years. In extra words, they’ve had it their way for a long, long time. These should be happy, open-minded, generous folks – why are they still so angry and why does Gore obviously scare the pants off of them? Also, please note the monitoring news: June 27, 2006 WASHINGTON (AP) — “The nation’s top climate scientists are effectively giving ‘An Inconvenient Truth,’ Al Gore’s documentary on global warming, five stars for accuracy. The AP immediately contacted more than 100 top climate researchers by e-mail and phone for their opinion. Among those recently contacted were vocal skeptics of climate change theory . . . those who have seen it had the same common impression: Gore conveyed the science correctly; the world is finally getting hotter and it is a manmade catastrophe-in-the-making usually caused by the slowly burning of fossil fuels.”
