Two new documentary films are debuting this month that elucidate current issues in the sphere of environmental or "green technology".
The first and certainly more well-known film is Al Gore's documentary An Inconvenient Truth.
The second film is by documentary film maker and technology entrepreneur, Chris Paine, and is entitled Who Killed the Electric Car?
While both films have specific, if not a shared, political agendas, both offer well-researched and detailed accounts of the state of the environment. More importantly, both address the current need for corporate investment in existing and upcoming green technologies.
