An Inconvenient Truth

An inconvenient truth is a documentary is about al Gore a former United States vice-president and it’s about global warming. It is mostly about global warming and Al Gore tires to change people point of view towards global warming and how it affects the world. The atmosphere of the earth is a very thick layer that protects and harms the earth. This is because the main purpose of the atmosphere is to protect the earth from the sun rays. In the documentary Al Gore shows a cartoon that explains how the atmosphere works. Then Al Gore shows some pictures of the Volcano Kilimanjaro and has it changed through time and some Glaciers that have been affected because of the hot weather and how they are melting. There were lots of statistics shown in the documentary too.

The next part of the documentary we saw how we can solve some of the problems that cause the high rise of CO2. Al Gore stated the ways to reduce the CO2 level. He said we can plant more plants in order to consume the CO2 and give us oxygen instead; another way is to use another type of energy instead of chemical energy which might reduce the CO2 emissions. Al Gore showed how the sea level might increase in the next 20years if we don’t start doing something about the global warming. Finally there was a personal part on the documentary Al Gore mentioned the death of his sister by lung cancer and the accident that killed his son.

At the end this documentary was very good it had really creative graphics and short movies that explained global warming in a friendly way which was simple enough for everyone to understand.
