An Inconvenient truth
First of all, I have to say that the video has positive and negative aspects.
I am going to mention three positive aspects.
First, I learned a lot watching the documental. To be honest, I had never realized what was global
warming because I did not have a clear idea of it. However, I believe the representations and short
videos were simple, precise and easy to understand, so know I have a stronger concept of global
warming.
Secondly, according to Al Gore, I have to say his presentation was magnificent. His argument was
quite convincing and the way he defended his point of view was persuasive. In my opinion the
man has done a wonderful job so far. I noticed his concernment about the earth and the passion
for his work. Certainly, all the years of dedication investigating and researching demonstrate how
willing he is to show that we humans must change the way we think once and for all.
And finally, I really liked the comparison he did with the frog because it represents exactly the way
we react to negative situations. The worse part of this is that we sit back without doing much to
change it for the better. Several times we wait until the last moment to do something, and when
we know that there is no option we start to respond. I realized how self-centered and
irresponsible we are.
Now I am going to mention two negative points.
The first point is related to the environment itself. It was terrible for me to find out that animals
such as polar bears are dying because of global warming, and when I saw the pictures of glaciers
all over the world melting I felt stunning. I had no idea this was a worldwide issue.
The second point is related to ethics. I cannot understand how wealthy men can create factories
and industries knowing that they are putting in danger not only human life but also animal life.
According to me they are being selfish because they are not considering neither the lives of their
sons or the future generations.
In conclusion, I would recommend this documental to the presidents and authorities all over the
world because its message is clear; we really need to take care our home now if we do not want to
regret in the future.
