The Great Warming makes it abundantly clear that passivity is not an option.

An impressive parade of scientists, meteorologists and grassroots activists assert that humanity is capable of adapting to a changing climate, building sustainable communities without sacrificing modern-day comforts and even reversing some of the damage.

A sober, smart and blunt environmental-catastrophe-to-come documentary.

Michael Taylor and Karen Coshof's slickly made documentary serves as a tidy primer on climate change, making up in breadth what it lacks in exhortation.

Does a solid job of dealing with the problem but with enough originality that it's not an exact duplication of the Gore film.

... The Great Warming, along with An Inconvenient Truth, the other widely released documentary to address climate change this year, should be required viewing by all.
