An Inconvenient Truth Posted 2007-01-02


A week ago I was privileged to watch Al Gore's documentary, "An Inconvenient Truth," detailing the perils of global warming.

While the debate continues by some whether this climate crisis is actually occurring, everyone should watch this powerful film that proves once and for all the "truth" behind global warming and how we as Americans can help save our planet before it is too late.

"An Inconvenient Truth" erases any doubt as to whether global warming is actually occurring. It cites the innumerable amount of weather phenomena and concrete data that points directly toward a temperature increase of the earth.

It also addresses skeptic’s doubts that global warming is simply part of a cycle in which the earth undergoes hundreds of warmings and coolings. Alas, the recent warming the earth has experienced has been unprecedented and if it not stopped soon, our climate and world could change dramatically.

Finally, the film offers hope to those who might accept this "inconvenient truth" and declares that all Americans can erase their carbon emissions to zero.

"An Inconvenient Truth" reflects Al Gore’s career-long dedication to this single issue and his efforts to educate and convince everyone he can. He says that he knows "it’s human nature to take time to connect the dots" but "there can be a day of reckoning when [people] wish they had connected the dots more quickly." Prevent this day of reckoning, watch "An Inconvenient Truth," and accept and fight this global crisis.
