An inconvenient truth

The movie is about global warming, and it is presented by United States Vice President Al Gore who was the nominee for president of America. He describes the changes in climate and the temperature and he describe the results of these changes. For example the breaking and the melting of the ice in west Antarctica which could raise global sea levels by nearly 6 meters which will drown some of lands and islands around the world. This is a big problem to the animals which live in Antarctica. He said because of that we may have to draw a new map of world. Another thing he talked about in the film is the relationship between carbon and temperature. The increase in carbon rate will raise the temperature in the world which may cause many problems. One of these problems is the increasing in sea temperature. Because it is making the hurricanes to get stronger He also mentioned that 40% of the people of the earth depend in Himalaya chain for their drink water. Al Gore wanted to show us that the people should learn from their mistakes and start to change. When he spoke about his sister died from a long cancer. In the end of the movie Al Gore mentioned possible solution for the "global warming" problem like, try to reduce our carbon emission in the world.

What does “An Inconvenient Truth" mean??

"An inconvenient Truth", there are many reasons for put this title for this movie. One of these reasons is that the movie talked about a problem and the people don’t want to believe this problem and this truth and they don’t want to do any thing to solve this problem because it will effect negatively on their life stile so that they don’t want to change their our life stile to save the earth because they don’t know how big this problem is and Al Gore wants to make them wake up. Because of that it is named "An inconvenient Truth".

My reaction on An incononveinent truth movie

An Inconvenient Truth film makes me feel fear from the future. We are facing a big problem and we have to solve it and start our action to this problem now. Al Gore opened my eyes on important thing like global warming, many people think that it is a normal problem but if they watch this movie they will know the amount of this problem and I am sure they will care more about this problem and they will take action like try to do something to reduce their carbon emission now, to save the earth before it is a global disaster.
