It is a very very good documentary. Gave a really good idea about the global warming issue AND how to solve it.
At some point I felt it’s like a horror movie! It reviled scary facts!

I wish if he could have focused more on how can global waring ultimately bring us into an ice age.. This part needed to be covered more.

One thing left to say is that some parts focused of Gore’s private life in a way I didn’t think it was necessary, Like the part when he lost the elections, this was not significant in my opinion. Other than that, it was a very good experience.

An impressive message, but a less than compelling viewing experience!

i am so happy that he had made this movie its wonderful to no that he cares it and in fact that most other people care about it it but too. but to go out there and make a movie of it is one great thing. ever since ive’ watched it i never cryed it change my ways right away i cant believe that we are doing such harm to the environment and yet some poeple eleif on scienest to have some kind of break throught well NO it’s not gonna happen like wake up its upp to everyone to do this it must be done all we will all DIE.

I had not seen the film before today, but it had already affected my behavior/lifestyle as the environmental message preceded it via word of mouth. Rarely does a documentary have the power to change global opionion and spur us to action. This one does. By all means, see it, then do something, before it really is too late.

Okay, so I am about 20 minutes through the “documentary,” and nothing has really grabbed my attention so far. It’s basically just been a long lecture from Al Gore and his monotonous, droning voice. It’s putting me to sleep!

Well, I haven’t given up entirely. I will finish it eventually. I’ve just already watched several other intriguing movies today, this one just does not fit in.

I’m not really learning anything either, but we’ll see later on. I’ll get back to it in a while.

Because of this documentary, I became a vegetarian. Through that, I’ve also paid more attention to my environmental footprint, and became more involved in politics. This is a great starting point for those wondering about global warming, and why anyone should care about it. The book of the same title is excellent, as well.

This is Al Gore’s movie. It’s obvious from the very beginning that he’s seriously passionate about this issue. WATCH THIS MOVIE! Then make changes in your life!!! I can’t watch that animation of the drowning polar bear come to fruition in reality!!!!

SHOCKING, TERRIFYING, EYE-OPENING

I’ve always been environment conscious, but seeing this makes you realized that it’s even worst than you think. All this, our little Earth could be gone in a blink of an eye. That means us too. No Earth, no us.

I can’t believe A LOT people still don’t believe global warming is real. IT’S REAL PEOPLE!

Glaciers are melting at alarming rates, animals and people are dying: Polar bears are drowning (bye bye ice they need), hurricanes, typhoons and other geological events are killings millions of people, droughts are killing other millions of people. It’s not a little rain here and little rain there; it’s too much rain at one time or none at all.

EVERYBODY NEEDS TO WATCH THIS MOVIE

PEOPLE WHO DON’T BELIEVE IN GLOBAL WARMING, WAKE UP AND SMELL OUR DYING EARTH, WAKE UP AND LOOK AT THE CLIMATE CRISIS WE ARE FACING AND CAN AVOID IF WE START TO MAKE MAJOR CHANGES NOW!

It affects us all. We could have 0 carbon emissions if we wanted too.

• Clean, renewable energy – all vehicles, all homes, buildings (work, schools, apartment, hotels, manufacturers, factories, etc.)
• Ban disposable items – use reusable, refillable, washable items
  For those items that we have to throw out: Floss, women’s hygiene products, diapers (the disposable ones), bathroom, facial tissues, napkins, paper towels, garbage, poop bags, dryer sheets, etc. (make them 100% post-consumer, biodegradable and compostable. And for women’s hygiene products and diapers – bleached without chlorine, and dryer sheets, use reusable/washable/biodegradable ones instead of disposable and ban disposable ones.
• Ban non-degradable plastics (bags, disposable tableware, containers, etc.) and only make and use biodegradable and compostable plastics.
• Ban non-recyclable items
• Make environment education in schools mandatory
• Use environment-friendly inks for all printers (at work, home, in schools, commercial printers, etc – ex: soy ink), and for pens (like corn oil)
• Support local farms, buy locally-grown produce (less emissions from transporting the produce), grow/buy organic
  Teach children to be environment-friendly from the day they are born
• Buy energy-efficient appliances, front-leading washing machines, hang clothes to dry instead of using the dryer
• Use fluorescent light bulbs – ban incandescent
• Walk, bike, roller blade, or take the bus –don’t drive
• Only make and sell 100% post-consumer items (printer paper, bathroom, facial tissues, paper towels, napkins – heck everything ever made!)
• Plant trees, donate money to a environmental organization to plant trees (for yourself and in somebody else’s name)
• Give environmental gifts
• AND SO MUCH MORE: It’s easy being green, just look online for A LOT more tips on how to reduce your ecological footprint.

IF WE ALL DO SOMETHING, WE CAN ALL WIN AND SAVE OUR PRECIOUS EARTH AND OURSELVES

I watched this movie and I really enjoyed it. As a response to the previous comment, I would say that even if it was a political move on Al Gore’s part, many of the points brought up in his presentation are valid. I’ve heard many people attack the movie by attacking Al Gore (ad hominem fallacy, attack the person not the ideas). However, I think the concerns are what are truly important to take away from your experience of watching this film. We can only hope that he practices what he preaches. Nonetheless, we still have a responsibility to act and create change in areas we feel are important enough and require change. I enjoyed the movie because it gave me the desire to look further into this crisis, and try to do what I can to at least create change in my daily practices.

I had to marinate on An Inconvenient Truth for a while. At first, I was pretty sure I liked it. I mean, everyone likes Power Point, right? And, I admit it, I really like Al Gore. I voted for him. And global warming has been kind of a pet thing of mine since I was a wee thing living in tree-huggery Southern California. So the movie got me pretty fired up and rah rah about saving the planet and stuff.

But then I went to the website (http://www.climatecrisis.net), hoping to find suggestions for how I, as the average joe consumer, might be able to help save the planet. Know what I found? Here are the ways you can help the planet:

1. Contribute money to Al Gore’s alternative energy co-op.
2. If you don’t contribute money to Al Gore’s alternative energy co-op, you are a Commie earth-hating sunuvawho. Or worse, a Republican.

And I am now disillusioned. Was that entire stirring movie just more political propaganda to get me to give a rich politician my money? Because that sucks. And hurts my heart a little.

What do you think? Is Al Gore just a guy who’s been a politician for so long that he can’t stop being a politician even long enough to make a movie, supposedly about global warming? Am I blowing this whole thing out of proportion? I dunno, it all ads up and I don’t like the answer I’m getting.

This film presented global warming in a practical, easy to understand way. I try to make choices that are good for our environment because it’s beautiful and I don’t want to damage it, but this film encouraged me to look for even more ways to make a difference.

I encourage everyone on the planet to watch this film.

I had assumed, as Al Gore mentions, that there were differing opinions on global warming, but he shows quite effectively that this is a view created by the media and those with a political or financial interest in creating misinformation.

The facts presented here are quite awe-inspiring and genuinely frightening but there is also clear guidance on how the approaching climate crisis can be avoided.
