An Inconvenient Truth (USA) (Paramount) (2006) ***Year: 2006iMDB
Director: Davis Guggenheim Cast: Al Gore
The Ex next president of the USA as he describes himself, Al Gore, has spent lots of time both before and after his presidential campaign, campaigning for awareness about the dangers of global warming and the urgency of doing something about it.
An Inconvenient Truth is, obviously, both a documentary and political campaign material. Regardless of the latter however, the documentary does a solid job at illustrating the scope and the speed at which our planet is deteriorating. I don't think the Democrats will win the next election on the basis of facing global warming, but as it's inevitable that political power will be cycled, it is good to know that they at least have some prominent figures which acknolwedge how far behind USA is in the global effort that is already under way.
