Last night i was invited to an advance screening of An Inconvenient Truth.
This is a documentary about ex vice president Al Gore travelling from city to city all over the globe with a very comprehensive slide show presentation on global warming.
a very powerful film..with an effective delivery. Al Gore is a good speaker. Keeps it light at times, makes it heavy to drive home a point.
I suggest everyone see this film ..
but people wont - and even if they do they wont do shit about it.
Al Gore was in attendance by the way - he did a Q and A after the movie ..
interesting man. he has a lot of passion for this and thats admirable.

I'd just like to see scientific evidence that the Earth is deviating from it's natural cycle.

see the movie - you'll see some evidence ..
no one is disputing it either ... we're heading for a shitstorm.
the things that really got me were the before and after pictures of places like the himilayas, etc where the ice is rapidly dissapearing.
(something that many countries depend on for fresh drinking water)

Well I don't really see why there'd be any beef towards the guy... I mean, he's noticed a problem and he's trying to make peole aware.
..he is a pretty creepy guy, though.
