Almost, but the content that he is presenting is interesting and startling. |

Its actually really good. There are some politics, but he's really done his homework, and ninety percent of the time, its good solid information. It made me think twice on Al Gore.

Honestly its not really a political statement (well at least on the surface) and if it is it shouldn't be taken as one. Its a moral issue and needs to be addressed.

If you seriously think that Al is worse than Dick, I don't even know what to say. But Spence is right, it is a moral issue.

moral issue? global warming is completely political. you should check your facts. as a side note just cause he uses big words and says them really fast does not mean that he is right. This movie was funded by folks that stand to benefit from this falsehood. We are coming out of and ice age and because we are the earth is heating up. stop burning fossil fuels does not equal no global warming. look it up.

I recomend reading State of Fear by Michael Chriton. He blows the whole global warming theory out of the water. I just goes to show you that you can make a study say whatever you want it to. It just depends who pays for the study.
I think we should invest money into researching cleaner fuel rather than trying to end global warming. I lived in LA for half my life and I do agree that smog and polution are a huge problem, but I don't believe that it is melting the polar ice caps and that we are all going to die from it. More likely that cancer will get us
Just my take

i totally agree with jon, and isaac
global warming is happening cuz we are coming out of an ice age,
we are moving closer to the sun, so of course its gunna get hotter
and i agree with jons idea that we should be working harder to develop
a cleaner cheeper, more effcaint feul. do you realize that oil companys have
an almost literal control over the world, oil comapnys have way too much power

Global warming is a real and iminent danger, and denial will not change that fact. The evidence shown in ice cores conclusivly states that the earth is heating at a greatly accelerated rate. It is a true fact that we are coming out of an ice age, but at a faster and more reckless pace than ever before. Jon does make an excellent point, however. Cleaner burning fuels not only to decrease smog and pollution, but also to lessen the rate of global temperature increase. Whether you believe that global warming is the cause of our current climate crisis or not, action still needs to be take. Indifference can only exacerbate the situation to an unbearable level.
