An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power

THE GIST
: A decade has passed since Al Gore first helped shine a light on the devastating effects climate change would have on the world. The progress made since is highlighted, as well as the efforts still needed on the part of all world governments, culminating in the landmark signing of the 2016 Paris Climate Agreement.

An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power is a well-made documentary that should be viewed by anyone, given the gruesome daily reminders we're getting now that climate change is already here, and not a future problem we can ignore still.

It seems incredible that the gargantuan effort that was necessary to bring the world powers to sign this agreement was undermined by the doofus now occupying the White House (hopefully for not much longer …).

THE BOTTOM LINE: Definitely recommended, but I also recommend you watch the first, Oscar winner for Best Documentary Feature, An Inconvenient Truth.

Grade: 7.5
