Recapping Inconvenient Truths... 3rd time's the charm?
So here is where it stands so far...
Ohnai boosted the movie "An Inconvenient Truth" and the website. I stated I would see the movie but had doubts about what it would contain, and detailed errors at the website for the movie.
No one has dealt with the factual claims at the website for the movie which are errant or misleading, nor whether such were in the movie.
I downloaded and watched the PowerPoint Presentation (PPP) on which the movie is based. It did not contain much discussion of data and spent most of its time punking on anyone who disagreed using guilt by association, making connections to other well established environmental issues which have nothing to do with CC as if to bolster the credibility of his own assertions, and did not accurately discuss models regarding possible effects.
No one has gone and watched the PPP to tell me if it has any close relationship to the movie, nor whether they saw problems within the PPP.
Is there anyone willing to discuss what the movie presents, using data (preferably from the movie), or let me know how the website or PPP relate to the movie? Errors in the latter items?
