Everything's Cool

There were a lot of good documentaries last year: White Light/Black Rain: The Destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Ghosts of Abu Ghraib, and many I haven't yet seen. Add this one to the list.

This is not the story of global warming, but the story of the efforts of scientist to get the story out over the last 20 years, fighting the oil and coal interests, and the Bush administration, all of whom are afraid they will lose their cushy lifestyle when the truth finally dawns on the American people.

It took Hurricane Katrina to wake America up to the fact that something is wrong, and now they are listening. Is it too late? That is only touched on in this film, but it is there for you to think about.

This was a funny, sometimes cute, and very entertaining film that tackled a subject that few Americans were aware of - how the Bush administration and Fox news covered up the truth about global warming.
