Like many readers, I recently accompanied my family to the Silver Theatre to see An Inconvenient Truth, the new documentary that is more or less a film of Al Gore’s slide show on Global Warming. Any one of those elements—documentary, slide show, global warming, Al Gore—is probably enough to send most movie-goers to escapist fare like Superman Returns instead. But the reality that Gore presents was engaging enough to maintain the interest of my 12 year old daughter and her 17 year old cousin. We would do well to see that this film is shown in science classes across the country in the next school year.
