Humanity is sitting on a ticking time bomb. If the vast majority of the world's scientists are right, we have just ten years to avert a major catastrophe that could send our entire planet into a tail-spin of epic destruction involving extreme weather, floods, droughts, epidemics and killer heat waves beyond anything we have ever experienced. The corporate think tank CEI, a group financed by oil company Exxon Mobil Corp. and automakers General Motors Corp. and Ford Motor Co., counters with an ad campaign. The movie's trailer featuring Al Gore, can be viewed here

Here is a critique from a group of scientists at RealClimate.
Quote: Along with various Seattle business and community leaders, city planners and politicians, a large group of scientists from the University of Washington got a chance to preview the new film, An Inconvenient Truth, last week.
It is an inspiring film, and is decidedly non-partisan in its outlook (though there are a few subtle references to the Bush administration's lack of leadership on this and other environmental issues).RealClimate And also a critique via Fox News by Patrick Michaels,a University of Virginia professor and senior fellow at the Cato Institute. Quote: "It's so overtly political, it's so overtly full of scare tactics... I just think the man has gone over the edge.... You know, in science, all we have are facts."MediaMatters video clip _________________ "Speaking the truth in times of universal deceit is a revolutionary act." George Orwell |
