An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth To Power - Preview Screening

A decade after An Inconvenient Truth brought climate change into the heart of popular culture, comes the riveting and rousing follow-up that shows just how close we are to a real energy revolution.

Vice President Al Gore continues his tireless fight travelling around the world training an army of climate champions and influencing international climate policy. Cameras follow him behind the scenes – in moments both private and public, funny and poignant — as he pursues the inspirational idea that while the stakes have never been higher, the perils of climate change can be overcome with human ingenuity and passion.

Release Date: August 24, 2017
Director: Bonni Cohen & Jon Shenk
Cast: Former US Vice President Al Gore

    They have been sending these type of promotion lately, free tickets but $8.95 booking fee. I don't mind if it's a popular movie, but I don't think I'll pay $8.95 to watch a movie that I got no idea about…anyone feel the same?

        Third that. I've been a member for years and it used to be that you paid $30 to sign up and then you got a pool of 300 points which you could use throughout the year (a movie was about 20 points), no booking fees.

    • justtoreply on 12/07/2017 - 16:49

      I only came into this thread to say the same.

      $9 fee for 2 tickets that usually cost just over $20 (no one pays full price, get real) is a joke for the kinds of movies they are peddling.

      Premium membership of promotix continues to be a joke (I'm in WA which has few benefits)

        Yep I signed up when they had it free in December, Brisbane has had five movie offers and nothing else in seven months. Would be absolutely filthy if I had paid for it, crazy to have a standardised price point between cities if they can't work out anything to do outside of Sydney and Melbourne.

      Brainwashed masses will neg you (and me). Climate change is perfectly normal, we are still warming up from the Ice Age which happened 10 thousand years ago.

        Climate change is normal but not at the levels we are currently seeing. The evidence is in abundance. The only reason deniers exist for the most part is because the media provides a platform for the vocal minority making it appear that its a 50/50 split which is most definitely not the case.

          Just like 99% of scientists though the earth was flat, that the sun revolved around the earth, that washing hands before performing surgery was a stupid idea. But yeah, if the majority agrees, it must be right :)

          @Spets:

          If some significant evidence comes to light that climate change isn't an issue and is being overplayed then I am sure we would see more pushback but the evidence is overwhelming in the opposite direction.

        Human nature means we love being told we can control everything…even things out of our control…like the weather.

        How anyone still takes ManBearPig seriously anymore, is insane.

        Here's something just as accurate: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jHLzTAji7uU

          Agreed.

          Its arrogant to think we can influence the weather. Next people will try to tell us we can screw up the ozone layer. Lol!

        • RockyRaccoon on 12/07/2017 - 19:29

          actually the real issue here is that if we are causing the climate change attributed, then its too late to save things like the Barrier reef. The effects we are feeling now are those caused by climate policies of 30 years ago., so we have 30 more years of impact IF we reduce our carbon footprint now.

          Thats the real inconvenient truth, if the climate scientists are correct. Most believers also believe that if we reduce our carbon footprint, then the problems will go away tomorrow.

          So while they may have the figures to show change, they still fudge things by inferring that once the carbon footprint is reduced the problems will be solved.

          Its not the percent the current population reduces its carbon footprint. Its also the total emissions. and while developed nations reduce their footprint, developing nations increase theirs. Not in percentage, but in absolute emissions, as these countries are increasing their populations .

          Simply put a 50% reduction in emissions per person, while doubling the population equals the same amount of pollution That's the issue. And in Australia we increase our population.

        Skepticism is obviously good but we can't live in denial (haha). If you look at the consensus among climate scientists, you will find nearly universal agreement that there is at least a detectable influence in the climate from human activity. They are not proposing anything radical.There is some dissent but in general the scientists who disagree are not able to explain the temperatures we are seeing with any alternative models. You are right in that climate change is a natural phenomenon, but the rates of heating are simply not congruent with that explanation. Even if you disagree with all of that, there are some things which are absolutely indisputable:

        1) Carbon dioxide (among others- water vapor, methane etc) shows very strong IR reflection, so if you have two sealed containers but one has been pumped full of CO2 and the other just O2, and you heat them both, the CO2 one will get hotter.
        2) Human CO2 emissions have exploded in the past 300 years.
        3) A 'hot earth' will at least royally screw up agriculture unless we can figure out some super crops very quickly. Rising sea levels are also obviously a worry..
        4) There exist certain feedback processes in nature- some have cooling effects, while others exacerbate heating- for example, losing the ice caps has so many bad effects it's not funny
        - Less ice means less reflective surfaces to reflect solar radiation
        - Ice loss is an exponential process.
        - Ocean acidification caused by heating shifts the CO2 equilibrium to the atmosphere, which further heats the ocean, which further shifts the co2 equilibrium…

        AFAIK these things are not even in contention. What is in contention is whether the earth might be able to absorb or counter our influence, and if not, how much time we have until those cascading effects I listed become so bad that even if human CO2 production stopped completely we'd still be screwed.

        If you still disagree, by the admission of the World Coal Institute itself (which is comprised of well known biased left wing lobby group green-energy-industrial-complex companies like BHP and Rio Tinto, har har) we have roughly 40 years of oil left, maybe 60 years of gas and 130 years of coal. Even if global warming is not existent, renewables are still a damn good idea.

      • smoothbrain on 12/07/2017 - 21:27

        Some would say you're also brainwashed for believing that the Earth naturally varies in climate. How do you know? Have you seen it? It's true, but I mean, that information is coming from … climate scientists. The same ones (~98%+) who assert that humans are causing accelerated climate change via atmospheric CO2 emissions. Why accept one scientific consensus but not the other? There is a multitude of evidence for both.

        Why does this have to be a left vs right political debate? Whether the climate change theory is true or not is strictly a scientific debate, so why are the most qualified people so easily disregarded?

        • teasatotalling on 13/07/2017 - 09:46

          It is a left v right thing because:
          1) conservatives have lower IQ & education
          2) conservatives have higher levels of fear
          3) because of the above, they have a more simplistic ideology which espouses 'rugged individualism' & 'market driven government'. This ideology is threatened by global warming because it requires cooperative action by governments, hence rather than take the more mentally difficult path of amending the ideology, they take the easier path of denial of science.
