"Beyond Global Warming"

Imagine yourself sitting in a inuit village, with your home around you being destroyed. The movie, "Beyond Global Warming" gave a different scientist’s perspective about global warming. People around the world don’t  understand that global warming is changing the planets natural cycles. For instance, the polar ice caps are one of the most affected regions, which is shown in this movie. Scientists go out to the Arctic and complete many tests to show the difference over the years from global warming. Some of the captions of the ships found that the ice over 20 years ago has thinned and become very weak an easy to break when traveling through the ice caps. In Canada, small villages along the coast have been affective. Their fishing habits have been drastically changed because of the temperature changes have been taking affect on the fish because the fishes food has been compromised. The villagers hunting season is now cut in half by global warming. When watching this movie, I expected it to be about the true hard facts of global warming and not the discovery from scientists. When a films name is about a topic that film should keep true and not sway back and forth. The film did not suffice a fair amount of facts. The film focused more on scientists journeys around the ice caps and what they thought about global warming and how to inform the public that the worlds temperature is changing drastically and people all over need to change the way they live to help the world. None of the information was arbitrary which kept this film very factual.
