Movie Reviews of A Global Warning? (History Channel)
Movie Review: If this doesn't get your attention, nothing will...
Summary: 5 Stars
Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" got all the hype and awards. The History Channel's "A Global Warning?" only gets the Joe Friday award - "Just the facts, ma'am, just the facts."
If you want to understand why global warming is real and why we need to address the issue now, this is your documentary. It is substance, substance, substance. No grandstanding, no histrionics, no tear-jerking moments. Just a carefully made and compellingly presented factual case for global warming and the possible/probable outcomes from failing to address it.
This is what I thought I was going to get with "An Inconvenient Truth", which is riddled with Al Gore self-aggrandizement and self-pity.
If you want to watch an Al Gore 'feel good' show, get "An Inconvenient Truth". If you want to understand the scientific case for global warming, this is the real deal.
Summary of A Global Warning? (History Channel)
Arctic ice is melting sea levels are rising and glaciers are shrinking at alarming rates. And the Earth is getting unmistakably warmer. But is this vast potentially catastrophic climate change the result of human behavior? Or is it simply the Earth s natural cycle of warming and cooling periods that have occurred since the planet formed? THE HISTORY CHANNEL offers an in-depth study of the science behind this controversial hot-button issue.Scientists explore the skies to examine the warming effects of the sun and dig deep into the Earth to study continental movement and the volatile activity at the planet s core. Experts speculate on how natural events including volcanic eruptions and massive meteor impacts have affected temperatures and weather systems over the planet s 600-million-year history.Shot on location at some of the most breath-taking locations on the planet and filled with dynamic special effects A GLOBAL WARNING? is a captivating look at the Earth s climatic evolution and a study of the longevity of our planet--and man s future on it.DVD Features: (TBD) Behind-the-Scenes FeaturettesSystem Requirements:Run Time: 94 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: DOCUMENTARIES/NATURE & WILDLIFE UPC: 733961107944 Manufacturer No: AAAE107940Documentary DVD Video
