Al Gore''s crusade, which claims we have less than ten years to save the world from global warming. The combination of facts and figures, images to illustrate the points, Gore''s personal story and appearances all around the world – create a fascinating film that has broken box office records.
The director, Davis Guggenheim, gradually elevates our feelings of frustration at the situation, then efficiently redirects them to a place of real willingness to actively take part in the change, and then ends with a list of dos and don''ts.
To date, over a year since the film was released, the producers have seen dramatic success in: lowering carbon dioxide levels and the usage of oil and its products, the box office takings that fund high school study around the world, and mainly, in raising global awareness to prevent the further decline of our planet.
