I've put this in general chat rather than nights out because it is supposed to provoke debate.

Tonight I have been to see the film An Inconvenient Truth showing Al Gore. Omg, omg, omg - I hate to say this but I could well be going over to the dark side (well Jambutty's side anyway)! The facts and figures are ones that have been going around for a long time but when you see it all laid out for you in one place it makes for a very compelling argument.

This is the blurb from Prospects Foundation

There is still time to see it on Wednesday 31st January the film will be shown in Willow Hall at the New Era Complex, Paradise Street, Accrington, from 7:00pm

Tickets for the event are available on the night for only £4.50 per person, with a concessionary rate of £3.50 available to students,OAP's, under 16's and members of The PROSPECTS Foundation.

The film, which stars former US Vice-President Al Gore as himself, follows him around the World as he presents his ideas on climate change, with the sole intention of saving the planet! The topic of climate change is often one which causes confusion, however the film manages to entertain whilst also informing and educating in a simple yet non-patronising way.

Although environmental films may not appeal to you, this one is more authentic than any reality tv show, more compelling than fictional blockbuster movies and really is essential viewing. The film is certificate U, so is open to all ages, why not bring along the family for what will no doubt be an eye opener!

For more information about the screenings, please Prospects Foundation on 01254 380675.

Before you argue with me and quote facts that you've read from a tabloid newspaper please go and see the film.
