An Inconvenient Truth

The film An Inconvenient Truth with Al Gore promotes the awareness of climate change and sustainability very effectively. The message of Al Gore's talk is communicated well and is very clear for everyone. It is very persuasive about climate change but gives the message clearly that we need to do something about cutting our emissions or our earth could change drastically. He uses graphs and images to illustrate the point about climate change, which are easy to understand even if you don't know anything about climate change. Al Gore uses video clips about his life experiences which gives the talk a personnal touch so the audience can connect with it.
The information given is very informative and relevant to the topic and us, climate change will affect us. Essential information about climate change is included without making the talk too technical or confusing. Al Gore explains the details simply for people to understand while adding jokes about the information which makes it interesting to watch.
I found the talk really interesting, it is strange that we can have such a large impact on the earth because it is so big but the evidence is there that we are contributing to climate change. The talk shows that if we don't do something about our CO2 emissions, our climate will change and species will die out.
