It has facts, it has suspense, it even has Futurama clips: Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth launches, bringing with it mind-blowing descriptions of the destruction facing earth unless we pull our acts together in the next 10 years.

One of the most distressing facts about climate chaos is that it's felt hardest by the world's poorest and most vulnerable people - the people who have done the least to contribute to it and who are least able to cope with its impacts.
The coalition's report - Up in Smoke? Latin America and the Caribbean - shows that, while the region has always suffered from some extreme weather, the largely predictable temperature and rainfall patterns are becoming less predictable and often more extreme. There's been drought in the Amazon, flooding in Haiti, vanishing glaciers in Colombia, extreme cold in the Andes and hurricanes in Central America... The list goes on.
Not only do people living there have to cope with the direct effects of extreme weather, they are also dealing with the knock-on effects like water shortages, crop failure and disease.
There is still time to prevent climate change from entering its "feedback loop" of catastrophic destruction, and most scientists agree that we have around 10 years to do it. That means it's down to us - and there is plenty we can do.
