    An inconveinient truth.......

    I rented and watched this movie/documentary tonight, very interesting if you ask me, if you have seen the movie Id like to hear your thoughts on the whole global warming issue. It would be rediculous to base your life and live your life fearing it, but it would also be rediculous saying that it isnt for real, I defininetly think its for real, but in the back of my mind I think he exagerrates some of the points he makes, what do you think?

    Its a propaganda movie, not a scientific movie. As a counterweight you should watch the great global warming swindel aswell

    Both are just as much propaganda though. But in oposit directions. Both have flaws. The truth is probably in betwen.

    I find it disturbing that a inconvenient truth is going to be shown to every school kid in the UK. Im sure some scientific show like Nova has done a much better job already that isnt alarmist.

    Al Gore was just confused after hunting manbearpig. Half man, half bear, half pig. And he was being super serial.

    thats funny, its the exact opposite, ya there are deffinetely some truths in each movie. There were some points in An Inconveinient Truth where it seemed like Al Gore makes some statements that werent backed up by any scientific evidence whatsoever, or so it seemed, the movie almost seemed to be HIS point of view on the whole issue, I buy some of it, not all of it though.

    It would only be fair if they show that movie, to show the great global warming swindle as well, that way the kids ,or whoever is watching it, cound come up with their own conclusion on the whole issue.
