Global warming is a wide issue which is going broadly over the years. Human being is the main cause of global warming, this what Al Gore discussed in his speech of “An Inconvenient Truth” movie. Many critics criticized Al Gore’s point of view even positively or negatively. This essay will examine two argument reviews for and against the movie.
One writer was against Al Gore’s point of view and he supported his idea with some reasons. First, the movie has many inaccurate facts and unnecessarily details. For example, Al Gore’s told that the sea level raised by 6 meters in the last decade, however, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) figures showed that the sea level rose by 6 cm. Therefore, Al Gore exaggerated the figures almost 100 times. Secondly, it was not convenient for him to talk about his family and his personal life in the movie (Medley).
On the other hand, another writer supported the view of the movie with some reasons. The documentary movie discussed a very important issue which is global warming and also showed how it affects the earth very badly. Though, "An Inconvenient Truth" is a necessary film for many people and teens, because it makes them understand the causes of this series issue and makes them more careful and alert. This film is an interesting educational method to interact people with global warming issue (SCOTT).
Overall, Al Gore gave a clear point about how our plant is affects by the human activities in his film. In my point of view, the movie gave an obvious motivating message for all who watch it to be more careful and take more care of our big home which calls “earth”.
