In what Larry King labeled "one of the most important films ever," Al Gore makes an engaging and passionate argument that global warming be viewed as a moral dilemma rather than as a political issue. In the film, Gore outlines the effects of global warming on natural environments, plant and animal life, and weather phenomena that have resulted in what he calls a "planetary emergency."
