Global climate change isn’t going to fix itself, so Al Gore is back in “An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power” to remind us of the continuing battles — and to also take comfort in some of the small victories.
The new movie picks up where 2006’s “An Inconvenient Truth” leaves off, when Gore was presenting his “slideshow” (actually an Apple Keynote presentation) of the alarming facts and figures of climate change. Eleven years later, he has taken that message worldwide, training young “climate leaders” to do the same.
The truth hasn’t gotten any better. Gore regularly updates his presentation with fresh news footage of flooding, rainstorms and rising ocean levels that bear out what he has said before.
