An Inconvenient Truth: The Planetary Emergency of Global Warming and What We Can Do About It by Al Gore
3.0
Historically perhaps the first closest moment the US "government" has got to an overarching view of global warming and impact, it is essential for anyone studying the way this issue has gone through the public understanding of science.
The problem with the text is its most important feature: while simplifying the dialogue for easy access it also sets the discussion around overly simplified messages and does not move beyond into realistic measures.
I believe that the doomsaying ends up threatening conservatives because it comes with suspicions of large government programs as the response. If Gore had been more focused on the potential policy choices rather than hockey sticks, the discussion would have been "what choices do we have" and more unifying in the dialogue, I believe.
