Al Gore's new film

The subject of climate change is getting increasing attention in our media, although articles on the subject still tend to be confined to small pages on the back pages of our newspapers. Al Gore's film 'An Inconvienient Truth' finally gives the issue of global warming the attention it deserves and it makes for compelling viewing. It is difficult to argue with the extensive scientific evidence presented - there is now effectively unanimous scientific agreement that humans are altering the climate. However, the pace and urgency of the issue is quite shocking. The film is not without its flaws: too much responsibility is put on the individual rather than industry and our grossly unjust and destructive economic system is not questioned. One must also wonder about the motives of a rich American with aspirations for the Presidency. Nonetheless, the film's underlying point is well made, and for this reason I urge Indymedia readers to see the film and act to draw attention to the subject and help combat global warming. |
