Title: MS in Mech Engineering, 'A' in Heat Transfer & 'A' in Thermo
Review: Oh my gosh folks... please believe me when I say I am the sort who firmly believes in being environmentally conscious but this piece of propaganda has near zero technical merit. Ok, yes, CO2 has a higher absorptivity than Nitrogen, but just like the color black, it has a higher emissivity. I.e. additional CO2 in the atmosphere provides no net gain. Mr. Gore neglects to mention that CO2 will emit more heat to space at night, approximately equal to the additional heat absorbed during the day. His analogy of evil "heat men" coming to the earth and stopping is, I am sorry, stupid. This film does little more than give ammunition to those who seek to prove the environmental movement is without any merit. Oh, and it likely made Mr. Gore millions.
