The evidence that we have reached an ecological tipping point is incontrovertible. Davis Guggenheim's An Inconvenient Truth presents the current state of our environment, as well as its potential future, using footage from Al Gore's traveling presentation interspersed with interviews with the man who “was the next president of the United States of America. " While Gore may give this self-description jokingly, this is undoubtedly a political film, not without political bias. Fundamentally, however, this is a film that addresses the government's lack of honesty and accountability. This is a film that forces the viewer to wonder why they weren't informed about carbon dioxide emissions sooner While an abundance of scientific research is used to support the once-controversial idea of ​​global climate change, the film is also filled with personal stories from Al Gore. Guggenheim uses Gore's experiences to allegorize larger issues, as well as to make the former vice president relatable and credible. However, the use of a figure of Gore's stature comes at a price: distorted interviews and the manifestation of large-scale environmental problems. scale in the politician-turned-activist force skeptics to associate a disturbing and indiscriminate issue with Democrat Al Gore and the liberal agenda. Al Gore playing An Inconvenient Truth's global warming spokesperson is, without a doubt, a double-edged sword. Over the course of the film, Guggenheim develops the technique of using weighty ideas to evoke an emotional response. After Al Gore awkwardly dabbles in romance, describing the effect of being in nature, the bulk of the film begins with the former vice president drawing the audience's attention to a pale blue dot in the image taken by a space probe ...at the heart of paper……r sustainable. Davis Guggenheim, in collaboration with Al Gore, makes it clear that global climate change will leave no corner of the biosphere unscathed. While Gore communicates that a change needs to be made, he does little to explain what the average citizen can do. Gore's status makes him an excellent figure in terms of publicity and credibility regarding the issue, however, the political undertones of the film are at times so poignant and pervasive that they dilute the call to action that may have previously been taken up. If the film had steered clear of political elements and remained purely scientific, global climate change might not have become a partisan issue. While Gore is an exceptional activist, a dedicated environmentalist, and an unexpectedly witty lecturer, he is not the scientist that An Inconvenient Truth needed, nor the scientist that global climate change needed..
