An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power
A decade since the release of An Inconvenient Truth the topic of climate change and global warming continues to be a politicized hot button issue. Meanwhile, self described “recovering politician” Al Gore is continuing to crusade for protecting the environment, what’s new and is there still hope for us here on earth?
Directed by Bonni Cohen and Jon Shenk this information rich follow-up continues to deliver hard hitting facts and important information for the world to see and acknowledge, unfortunately for us, the man bringing the people the gospel has the charisma of a stick of broccoli– but, get past the often droll tone and the answers start to become clear, hope can be found, and, the issue doesn’t have to be a partisan matter. Additionally, a bit of grandstanding around the Paris climate agreement of 2016 does come across as self important, regardless, the point remains the same, evasive action needs to be taken and the evidence continues to mount. An important and healthy watch, just have a cup of coffee before the film starts. An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power is rated PG.
