§  ||  ¶See This Movie!

Everyone must see this movie that Al Gore made. We did last night. Finally Al Gore has found where and how he can be effective. See the trailer. There's not much time left. 

I found the most interesting "take away" from this film is the fact that surveys of the scientific literature show that the number of reports refuting global warming in ZERO. Yet 53% of the articles in the press covering global warming treat it as just a theory (like evolution). Again, we the public are being led to believe and to have faith that our leaders know what they're doing.

Science says otherwise. And the images in this film do not lie.

Gore says again and again that this is a moral issue. So where are our religious leaders on this issue? Why aren't the churches all bothered about how we're doing protecting the planet?  It's just not a convenient truth for them.

Earlier, I mentioned a PBS Nova program on the dimming of the sun.

It's a strange situation to be in... air pollution is actually slowing global warming. And the more we do to reduce air pollution, the faster global warming occurs.

The only solution is to deal with both, altho scientists interviewed in the program indicate that unless we do something significant real soon (10 years?) we're screwed.
