I thought is was good and relied on credible and respected authorities. NOVA recently ran a program that attributed at least one of the mass species extinctions to global warming. The asteroid strike accounts for only some of the five mass extinctions over the past 650 million years.
Gore should have also discussed the well-accepted process called "Peak Oil". Some argue that current oil prices are soaring because discoveries of oil fields are not keeping up with the consumption of oil. An oil company commericial described this phenomenon, but said it could be happening now or in the next 20 years. (Oil prices will rise exponentially under this scenario.)
Peak Oil when combined with "climate change" makes for a very scary future.

Maybe what Al Gore says is the pure truth but I have some other questions for him... Why did he turned this tragedy of epic proportions in a sort of Withe House Elections Campaign?
What he has to say about the American bad guys that support his campaign with money that originated in Earth polluting activities?
Where are the great ideas of what we're supposed to do in this few years that part us from some great natural disasters?
Where is the list of the big enterprises that poison our water and air? We want names...
So... I liked it but in some way I found it cheap and subjective.

I spent the day in a persistant gloom! IT was like hearing "200 nukes are headed for america and will make landfall in 60 minutes!!"
I dont know if mankind is meant to continue to exist, but Revelation seems closer somehow. Ive elected to try and get to a safe place where I have the tools to live in harmony with nature more than ever!

I liked it too. I'm not a huge Gore fan but he made some really excellent points. After seeing it, I wonder how people can still deny that global warming is happening right now.

Pure bullshit! Propaganda at it's worst, specifically made for consumption by the "sheeple!" Made to play on the sheeple's fear and emotions. Reminded me of Chicken Little running around, hyper-ventilating about the sky falling. 99% speculation!
