It’s a convincing argument from a lot of people who seem to know what they’re talking about. Many of the interviews are framed badly, but the graphs are pretty and voiceover is articulate.

Definitely felt good to hear that maybe I’m not such a horrible person after all. And then I watched Australian Broadcasting Corporation’s criticism of the film. Now I don’t know what to believe. On the issue of global warming, extremism in both directions is for sale, and I’m beginning to realize that extremism is for sale in pretty much any industry. The middle of the road may be the truest path, but it is quite often the least lucrative.

Can anyone tell us the truth? Are extremist political agendas more important than getting the facts straight in order to save the world?
