I saw the movie twice now. If you don't already have your mind made up
before hand it is fiction, it is very informative. I read a lot of science
articles and didn't see anywhere a personal slant from Gore. I thought one
of the best points was the correlation between Co2 in the atmosphere and ice
ages in the past. By monitoring Antarctic ice cores it is clear ice ages
follow a rise in Co2. Scientists can go back 650,000 years (seven ice ages).
The Co2 level now is higher than it has been in the last 650,000 years and
still rapidly rising. At the level it is rising in 30-40 yrs. it will be
twice as high as it has ever been. Another interesting point was being shown
an ice core that researchers could tell the exact year lead was added to
gasoline and the exact year legislation was passed to remove the lead. The
atmosphere seems almost infinitely thick to us, but on a globe two feet in
dia. it would be as thick as a coat of varnish.
