Gore gets his climate message across on film

Al GORE’S film, An Inconvenient Truth, finally gives the issue of global warming the attention it deserves and it makes for compelling viewing.

It is difficult to argue with the extensive scientific evidence presented — there is now effectively unanimous scientific agreement that humans are altering the climate. However, the lack of urgent remedial action is shocking.

The film is not without its flaws: too much responsibility is put on the individual rather than industry and our grossly unjust and destructive economic system is not questioned.
