This is my second time watching this documentary. I am shocked again. Al Gore used very vivi graphs and data to show us how serious the environmental problems we are facing are. As our society develops, the inevitable consequence is that our environment is worse and worse. our earth is becoming more and more infirm, especially due to the releasing of the greenhouse gases.
In this documentary, Gore tried to convince the audience that it is time for us to take measures to stop polluting the environment, or thegreenhouse effect will went even worse, the destructive climate change will kill all of us. Though he had recognized this inconvenient truth, he did not give any specific solutions to help us get rid of it; rather, he generally suggested us reducing releasing of the greenhouse gases. He emphasized the responsibility of US citizens again and again during the documentary, he thought th US could and should take responsibilityis to solve the problem of global warming. But actually, it is impossible for relying on 'some' people on the earth to solve this world wide problems. All the people should take part in and contribute to it.
For the governments, they should disseminate the importance of protecting the environment and set examples for people to follow. Environmental problems are very big issues that they are closely related to a country's developmental modality. The government can not simply promulgate a new law to prohibit or restrict releasing greenhouse gases, the development of the country's economics should also be taken into account. The government can only encourage people doing researches on renewable energies and replace the traditional energy sources gradually. Policies can not work very well in helping solving the problem; rather, policies are only guidelines that provide the orientation of development. The very basic thing the 'policies' should do is only make people realize the importance of protecting our environment.
