An Inconvenient Truth: (Part 2)


Task 4

According to Brandon, the film proved that global warming is no longer a theory. In addition, the writer believes that Al Gore has massive information which includes evidence like pictures and pie charts which show and prove how the earth is getting affected badly by global warming which is caused by humans and no one can challenge the evidence which was provided by Al Gore. In addition, the scientists agreed that the earth is being affected rapidly by the global warming and the weather is changing. In the writer's view, the film is well organized and it ends with advice how to get as good weather as it was in the past. Last of all, the writer states that although humans were blamed in this movie, but they were also highlighted to be heroes who can help to solve this problem along with the government.

On the other hand, in a more negative way Scott said how come Al Gore wants the others to stop contributing to CO2 emissions and giving the audience plans to stop these emissions while he is the first who can be blamed for contributing to CO2 emissions while he is promoting his movie and traveling here and there. The writer outlined from the program that Al Gore is quite often saying negative comments about Bush which gave you the impression that Al Gore was looking for something else like his political ambitions rather than educating us about global warming. The writer believes that although Al Gore gave a good speech, he tries to make an effort to influence the audience with that fact by talking about his family loss.

In my opinion, I do agree with Brandon that global warming is no longer a theory, since we are seeing the earth is getting warmer and ice is melting. I do agree also with Scott saying that Gore has a mass of scientific data because he used charts, pictures in addition to diagrams in order to convince the audience as best as he could. However, neither Scott nor Brandon mentioned any figures about people who agreed or disagreed with their own opinions about this program. However, although Gore sensitively was controlling the audience sometimes, but I diverge with Scott seeing Gore is trying to win people over to his point of view. Overall, I believe that the film is about Al Gore's efforts to educate the public about global warming not about his personal concern to win the next election or any similar interest.
