Impact of Global Warming

Impact of Global Warming

At the time I originally saw the movie An Inconvenient Truth, I was appalled at what had become of the earth, from the increase on CO2 in the ice, to melting ice caps and drowning polar bears. I must say now, however, several years later, I am apathetic to the film.


Why does Al Gore fly around in HIS PRIVATE JET wasting fuel to talk about the environment? Why not take a train? or something more fuel efficient? I have read about the research going into genetically fart-less cows (yes, fart-less cows), but wouldn't it be easier just not to eat them and be a vegan? Al Gore isn't.
When you eat a piece of corn, you get 100% of the value of that corn. When you eat a cow, you only get 10% of the value of the corn it ate.

I found the review of this film simple in that the author doesn't or couldn't make long or interesting sentences. The sentences are short and simple minded. They are of a less than professional quality. It was just alright.

I would not explore this website further. I have a wide screen monitor, and this website was only formatted for a standard screen. On my screen, everything is squished to the left.

Barry's Response - The film, like this website, is designed to appeal to a broad set of members in the each potential audience. That has enabled both to become great successes. More power to Gore; it worked for him. He voiced these scientific principles to a public who were completely unaware of them, and we are now seeing some benefits from that action.

Thank you, Cloei, for bringing this point out of me.

Bridging the Gap Between Words and Actions on Global Warming


Few figures have left as big an impact on climate change advocacy as Al Gore, the charismatic former vice president. "An Inconvenient Truth" woke up millions to the reality of global warming. The inconsistencies between the words and actions of climate change pundits like Gore are an inconvenient truth we have to face as we explore the world of climate change.

Here, I will shed light on these disparities and inspire critical thinking among movie fans and environmental activists. Check out the fascinating world of global warming, its narratives, controversies, and the need for solutions. Our next step is to introduce you to Calvin Consulting Group Ltd., a trusted partner for reporting and air quality solutions.

Words vs. Actions: The Climate Change Crusaders

Along with other climate change activists, Al Gore has passionately championed the cause. Millions of people have listened to their speeches and documentaries. However, when we look at their lifestyles, we find a stark contrast.

People who support climate change often jet-set around the world, leaving a big carbon footprint. Their extravagant lifestyles, private jets, and lavish homes seem at odds with their principles. It's made many question their sincerity and commitment.

Walking the talk is important

One of the sentiments associated with climate change is being "tired of climate change rhetoric." People are increasingly disillusioned with empty promises and grand speeches. Real commitment and tangible actions are what they want.

It's important for climate change advocates to align their personal choices with their public stance. Leading by example inspires change and strengthens the movement's credibility. The fight against global warming needs authenticity.

The Science Behind Global Warming

Let's establish a solid understanding of global warming before we dig into the actions of climate change proponents. Global warming is the long-term increase in Earth's average surface temperature due to human activities, mainly the release of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (CO2).

Global warming is fascinating and alarming at the same time. Heat is trapped by greenhouse gases, so it can't escape back into space. Earth needs this natural greenhouse effect to stay habitable. As a result of human activities such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, greenhouse gas concentrations have increased dramatically, intensifying the greenhouse effect.

What's the truth about climate change?

It's important to distinguish between narratives and facts as we navigate the complex world of climate change. With so many narratives vying for attention, climate change has become a polarizing issue. There are some who say the science behind global warming is inconclusive, while others say it's urgent.

Credible sources and scientific consensus are crucial in this landscape. Global warming is mainly caused by human activities, according to most climate scientists. Unchecked climate change has consistently been sounded the alarm by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

everything was too good

From Barry - In the film, we see an idealized version of what the world would be like if we took different steps to reduce emissions.

Apathy is not an option
by: Bentham

If you object to Al Gore using a jet to get around then tell him. You could suggest he use scheduled commercial flights to reduce his carbon footprint. Personally, I think he should stay in one place and webcast a lot.

The whole argument about cows and veganism is a red herring. Vegan farming can be just as energy intensive as carnivorous farming. It is not the end product but how you get there. And, apathy gets you nowhere.

From Barry - It might help to focus on positive change and be proactive about reducing our carbon footprint. Respect each other's opinions and work together to make our society a better place.
