An Inconvenient Truth

Before going to ISA, I saw Al Gore's film An Inconvenient Truth. Everyone should go see it. It's shocking! I knew that climate change was happening, I knew that it was bad, but I had no idea that it was THAT bad! It is. It's worse than most people realize. We have to do something, and fast. 10 years to entirely change our habits and the state of the planet is no time at all. Especially not the way that politics work--at a snail's pace. It's up to the people to raise each other's consciousness, to demand change before it's too late, and to take action any way they can. That's the one weakness in the film though; it doesn't make enough concrete suggestions for change at the end, although it does suggest going to the film's website for more info. It's at: http://www.climatecrisis.net/ Go there. Now.
