An Inconvenient Truth
An Inconvenient Truth
Ended up going last night with Mr. C, Danny and Stephanie to see this....
At times it was just a bit too cliche, trying a bit too hard, however, I left feeling that we all DO need to do things to save this planet. Of course I have always felt that way (and I am sure we all do deep down) - but then I'd still drive by myself to work, not doing all I really could. Like carpooling, using public transportation, cutting down on my OWN bad energy habits.
I encourage you all to go see this film - whether you are a republican, democrat, libertarian, or anarchist...
The truth will hit you, the pictures speak volumes, as does the hard data; and, if we don't change how we live on this planet, we may not have a planet to live on very soon....and I am not talking hundreds of thousands of years from now, I am talking within the next couple of generations.
My preaching isn't what's going to change your mind.
From my own personal experience, I remember growing up in the foothills of the Allegheny mountains and how beautiful it all was, and the idea of losing that, of the rivers drying up, of the forests dying scares the hell out of me - it should all of you too.
