‘This was not supposed to happen’: Gore’s sequel comes in dismal 15th at box office

Weird thing to celebrate.

Does Gore exaggerate? Sure. Is the planet in danger? Absolutely.

He's right that people will look back on this generation & really wonder how we did nothing.
How have they done nothing? Cars emits less than 5% of the cars in the 70s and the US has dialled back CO2 emissions to 1991 levels due in large part to fracked gas and CCGT power stations.

And China alone currently emits 5 times what the US did in the 70s.................Then there is India, Russia and Al Gores farts
 
If the movie gets a lot of people to care it's done a good job.
The first one did for a while until the truth set in with time.
I did skip over your fill in the blank question, because I'm not here to do your homework and there is no question as to Anthr Climate Change.
No need to do any homework. You can fill in whatever number you want and you still won't find a study that comes to a conclusion of Catastrophic Apocalyptic Anthropogenic Global Warming.
 
You only have to ask one question, why are Goldman Sachs and El Gordo on the same side? Could it be that they still want to set up the Ponzi carbon credits scheme?

It is all about the money. Al Gore was smart in that sense. He has made millions from stupid people being gullible. Like PackD. Twice.

Correction. Once.
The public: Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. But packed may rent the netflix version.

He started another thread about this movie coming out. Said he could not wait to go pay and see it. And he will probably rent the netflix version AND by a copy of it. That is actually 4. He gets the Gore secret decoder ring prize for that.

Maybe packed alone will help Al Gordo break even on this one.

Tucker wrote: “Considering the fact that this is arguably the first major anti-Trump documentary to hit theatres–and considering the public outrage over Trump’s decision to pull out of the Paris climate agreement–Paramount should have stuck to its original plan; in fact, Paramount could have seized upon anti-Trump sentiment by giving An Inconvenient Sequel the same high-profile national rollout that Lionsgate gave [Michael Moore’s] Fahrenheit 9/11 in 2004, a rollout that resulted in that iconic film opening at #1 at the US box office, a rarity for a documentary.”

its a conspiracy between trump and paramount pictures.


It's only being shown in select cities, and only in a relatively small number of theaters. It's a niche film for a niche audience.

This isn't 2006 anymore, when Climate Deniers roamed the Earth hollering that Global Warming wasn't real, and that an international conspiracy of scientists were faking the data and perpetrating a diabolical hoax.

No normal person even denies human emission of carbon are affecting the climate anymore. Even Trump, who claimed last year that global warming was a Chinese Hoax, has retreated, backtracked, and goal post moved. The posters here who, a decade ago, called global warming a complete hoax, now have backtracked and claimed they supposedly "always knew" that global warming was real, and humans are contributing to it.

Gore doesn't need to make his point in the same way he did in 2006. Climate denial is in permanent decline. . It is a different battle now. The question is not whether or not human carbon emissions are changing the climate. The question now is what do we do about it.

Given population increases, these are fairly token measures. But I'm not even talking about AGW, which I personally don't put much stock in.

I'm talking about development & pollution, and how we treat the planet in general. We do not have a symbiotic relationship with the planet right now. Our planning, development and energy use do not account for even the next generation, much less 3,4, & 5 generations down the line. We're short-sighted, wasteful and give very little regard to habitat, the air & water. We're currently undergoing one of the biggest mass extinctions in natural history.

We need to change the way we do things - the way we consume, the way we travel, the way we produce energy...all of it. But no one even talks about a bare minimum of behavioral change. As some on the thread have said, the earth will survive, because it always does. Can man without clean air, water, and an adequate food supply?
