AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH?
Should the Al Gore film 'An Inconvenient Truth' be compulsory viewing for all secondary school pupils?

The UK Govt. has recommended the use of this film to be used as a key resource when teaching secondary school pupils about climate change. However, there is concern that this film contains too many scientific inaccuracies and may give the impression that the information it is presenting is scientific fact, rather than it being political opinion and consensus. Here is the first ten minutes of the film, and below, in background reading, is a part of the background debate about climate change.

What do you think?
