1) The scientific aspects in the documentary were right.
2) The documentary has enough evidence, graphs, charts, time-lapsed photographs and scientific studies to convince us that the ice caps are melting, the weather is no longer how it had been once, the ocean levels are rising, and temperatures are increasing alarmingly
3) The documentary displays images of the Antarctic and Greenland which clearly depict that these structures are melting and breaking up and this may lead to the drowning of many coastal cities of the world.
4) Floods, hurricanes and droughts are common occurrences.

1) The lecture relied only on scientific facts and focused on the issue of Global Warming only.
2) The documentary is just an effort of Al Gore to increase his popularity.
3) The author admits that the documentary is based on scientific facts, but feels that politics have been mixed with science and later points out sarcastically that global warming is a political issue and therefore facts matter little.
4) The author concludes by saying that the documentary is biased and only promotes Al Gore and therefore it is unlikely that it will impact a viewer who is already serious about Global Warming.



My Opinion

It is important for people to watch the documentary as it does make one aware of the possible outcomes of global warming. At the same time, one should compare the facts with what the documentary displays and conclude for oneself. On the whole, the documentary is not perfect but it is worth a watch to increase the awareness of global warming.
