Anything written by Al Gore is worth reading. This man brought the world to the understanding that climate change is an issue that must be addressed. Prescient and knowledgeable, he just may end up saving us all.

Overwrought. I'm glad all these predictions didn't come true.

Excellent and very scary, should be required reading for all high schoolers, IMO. Explains in very readable and understandable detail how we are consuming our planet, and what we need to do to change.

We are burdening our fragile environment with waste and tearing it apart to acquire, always, more we than we need. In one lifetime even I have seen the detrimental effects of our careless use of resources and disregard for the fragility of the earth. This book is a wake up call for those who will listen, a call coming barely in time, if not already too late. This book is comprehensive, but clearly comprehensible.....an absolutely gripping read.

This book is now eight years old and some of the concerns about global warming raised by Gore have been researched and disputed. But this doesn't take away a single bit from Gores concerns about urban sprawl and the quality of life issues he raises. This great book establishes Gores credentials as both a thinker and an environmentalist and the kind of person well equipped to lead our country into the next century.
