An Inconvenient Truth
This movie started a conversation that needed to happen about the impact of accelerating industrialization on our planet. It is effective propaganda in that it drives home a fundamental message in a persuasive way through multiple approaches, overcoming multiple objections from the viewer along the way. Knowing from the outset that these findings would be attacked by the powers that be and the status quo, it goes forward anyway. If it's all true, it's courageous and if it was somehow all made up it is also courageous. Either way, an Inconvenient Truth has proven to be effective. The U.S., China and other industrial nations take this subject seriously, more so than prior to this movie.
