Last week Hannah and I where walking through down town Juneau. We had been walking for a while when we came across a poster advertising for “An Inconvenient Truth”. It was playing at another theater in town. (I was aware of 2 theaters in town but now to find a third? How many theaters does this town have?) We noted that the movie was only going to be playing for one more week so we told each other we would see it next weekend.
Last night we took our friends, Kyle and Leona to this movie and i really enjoyed it. The movie is a hard subject for me to talk about. I think if i did talk about it to much i would come out sounding like a hypocrite. But the movie does not make you feel that way. It just says the earth is hurting and we have to change. Here is what we need to start working to so that we can make that change.
I hope if you get a chance to watch this movie you will.
Movie Description
Director Davis Guggenheim eloquently weaves the science of global warming with Mr. Gore’s personal history and lifelong commitment to reversing the effects of global climate change. A longtime advocate for the environment, Gore presents a wide array of facts and information in a thoughtful and compelling way. “Al Gore strips his presentations of politics, laying out the facts for the audience to draw their own conclusions in a charming, funny and engaging style, and by the end has everyone on the edge of their seats, gripped by his haunting message,” said Guggenheim. An Inconvenient Truth is not a story of despair but rather a rallying cry to protect the one earth we all share. “It is now clear that we face a deepening global climate crisis that requires us to act boldly, quickly, and wisely,” said Gore.
The movie also shows a lot of Al Gore working on his Apple PowerBook G4 building his presentation in am Apple program called “Keynote“.
