Al Gore ? Réalité ou polémique ? Article du FIGARO

yves — Sat, 25 Aug 2007 05:31:31 GMT

Critique publiée dans le Figaro le 11 oct 2006. Opinions d'experts interviewés. "Pour Michel Petit, président de la Société météorologique de France, «l'ensemble du message rejoint le consensus de la communauté scientifique». D'ailleurs, à la différence de la fiction Le Jour d'après, toutes ses affirmations s'appuient largement sur le dernier rapport du groupe intergouvernemental d'experts sur l'évolution du climat (Giec). [...] «C'est une démonstration à l'américaine, qui a le mérite de l'efficacité», juge Guillaume Sainteny, directeur des études économiques et de l'évaluation environnementale au ministère de l'Écologie. «En 80 minutes, un spectateur lambda en sait autant que les gens qui travaillent dans ce domaine depuis longtemps», salue de son côté Nicolas Hulot. «Si tous les Français voyaient ce film, cela nous faciliterait bien la tâche», estime pour sa part le climatologue Jean Jouzel."
