2 out of 5 stars Outdated   October 8, 2007

This video originally released in 2000 is outdated and has modified its title to add the global warming line. The science, while good, leaves questions where we now have answers. I would have recommended this 7 years ago, I cannot do that now.


5 out of 5 stars A superb, well-rounded and balanced coverage of a serious hot-button environmental issue.   June 10, 2007

Global Warming: What's Up With The Weather? is a DVD presentation of the television special by NOVA and Frontline dealing with questions raised about modern climate change. In an era when demand for fossil fuels is increasing daily, more man-made carbon dioxide emissions have been added to the atmosphere than ever before. Scientists, climatologists, and futurists debate fiercely about what this means for the Earth - will its average temperature rise by nearly 10 degrees, melt arctic ice caps, or even bring about a new Ice Age in a stroke of irony? Or will the weather stay relatively normal? In addition to the in-depth forecasts for the future, Global Warming also includes printable materials for educators. A superb, well-rounded and balanced coverage of a serious hot-button environmental issue. 112 minutes, color, closed captioned.
