Global Warming Solutions News

As the new home of MASSPIRG's environmental work, Environment Massachusetts can be contacted regarding this news release. 

On Tuesday April 25, MASSPIRG and UCS hosted an advanced screening on "An Inconvenient Truth" followed by a question and answer session with Al Gore.

In "An Inconvenient Truth," director Davis Guggenheim eloquently weaves the science of global warming with Al Gore's personal history and lifelong commitment to reversing the effects of global climate change. A longtime advocate for the environment, Gore presents a wide array of facts and information in a thoughtful and compelling way. The film, which was an official selection of the 2006 Sundance Film Festival, is not a story of despair but rather a rallying cry to protect the one earth we all share. The film was featured in the recent Time Magazine cover story on global warming and in an article also in Newsweek.

Paramount Classics will release "An Inconvenient Truth" in New York and Los Angeles on May 26th with a wider national release to follow in June and July. The film opens in Boston on June 2. The film is not yet rated. Rodale Press will publish a book with the same title also in May.

Participant Productions presents a Laurie David / Lawrence Bender Production. Director: Davis Guggenheim. Producers: Laurie David, Lawrence Bender, and Scott Z. Burns. Executive producers: Jeff Skoll and Davis Guggenheim. Co-producer: Lesley Chilcott.
