This was my second viewing of Al Gore's documentary. The second time around was more enjoyable for two main reasons:
1. Paradoxically, three years ago, when I first saw the movie, I was aware of global warming yet utterly ignorant of it. The movie taught me a lot yet because I lacked a great deal of background on the subject, it touched my heart AND got my kind of panicky the "warming". I've learned so much these last three years (mostly through other documentaries and internet research) that I was able to make much more sense of the information being presented because I'm more conscious of the situation.
2. I "relearned" a great deal of things about population and ecological aspects that are easy to forget when only speaking of climate. It reminded of how far the US needs to go and how much we are going to have to work together.

Good. Glad it was worth the second viewing.
Would be nice to look for a source of fact checking about the movie. Even believing in the overall message, it is nice to know what to say when people criticize some of the information.
