Can't wait to see this sequel. The trailer looks great. I first started reading about climate change in 1990 and even did a story on it in 1999. (BTW, the journalism course I was in didn't take kindly to my story on 'climate' change back then either...who would have thought so many idiots in power were afraid of science.) I've been dumbfounded by the lack of action in this area from so-called leaders of the world ever since. There is no doubt whatsoever that human caused activity, coupled with natural cycles, are heating up the planet. There is a strong consensus among scientists who study climate that the planet will continue to heat up resulting in a runaway temperature feedback loop re: melting permafrost and release of methane, desertification, extreme weather events, MASSIVE refugee challenges and rising sea levels. That was my conclusion 18 years ago, and still I don't see enough being done. I have relegated myself to a philosophical position regarding this issue: What if humanity has completed its 'life cycle?' All species have a life cycle, from early primitive life to dinosaurs etc. and many have died out. Why are we any different? We have a life cycle also and we could be at the end of it due to our own activities...not so hard to believe is it? Anyway, the people below who call this 'propaganda and garbage' are obviously cowardly in the face of factual, scientific evidence, and thankfully, are in the extreme minority. NO ONE IS LISTENING TO YOU. The entire sane world has signed on to the Paris climate treaty. Only one rogue state is flaunting international consensus, the U.S., (and one hasn't signed because they say, 'it doesn't go far enough) and the U.S. will pay dearly with class action suits from various countries in the next decades.

Absolute garbage and propaganda.

7/28/17 Highky respected &lengthy over 20+yrs European study published IN journals this week concludes we are NOT in global warming crisis, so i am a skeptic. THE FILM OF COURSE RAISES GOOD POINTS BECAUSE ITS WHAT THE FILM ITSELF IS ABOUT (A BIASED PERSPECTIVE). I'D LOVE TO HAVE SEEN A FILM THAT REFLECTS 'BOTH' SIDES OF THE ARGUMENT THAT I FEEL A COMPLETENESS OF PRESENTED INFORMATION IN ORDER 2MAKE MY OWN DECISION & NOT RELY ON THEORYS A GROUP OF SCIENTISTS ALREADY IN AGREEMENT W/ FORMER VP GORE. THERE ARE EQUA)Y # OF SCIENTISTS NOT IN AGREEMENT. AFTER READING THE ABOVE EUROPEAN STUDY MENTIONED IN FIRST SENTENCE, AMONGST OTHER STUDIES FROM BOTH SIDES OF COIN, I'M STILL A SKEPTIC & Its hard for me to imagine that in the event we are in a crisis- 'that mankind itself could actually turn the crisis around?' ; this concept is TOO big 4me envision, as big as me swimming across the Pacific Ocean and thinking I'd safely arrive to the other side! The film is well done yet, I'd be happiest 2have seen a film that fills my mind with analysys from BOTH angles. It is then, that my mind would be able to draw conclusions based on unbiased fact. Biased agendas, such as in this film, NEVER do it for me. I need both sides. In anything in life- if both sides are not presented in order to make a point a truth in my mind, then the only word i can think of to describe effort to get a point across is the word: brainwashing or propaganda.

Al Gore's unique and moving expression of composure in the face of deep foreboding make this movie an exhilarating experience for anyone who cares about future generations. He states the science clearly and points to the things we can do to change the climate's dire trajectory. We are fortunate to have this man amongst us.
