I watched An Inconvenient Truth in Chem the other day.

I thought it was excellent, just like I suspected it would be. However, I also suspected that people would treat this like a campaign movie for Al Gore, talk about what a bore he is, and say something along the lines of "He can't just get over the fact that he lost."

My friends, I think I speak for us all when I say just how sick I am of people treating Al Gore like some kind of whore. You want to know why he's always talking about global warming and the environment? Because it's important! It's a worldwide problem! And worst of all, nobody wants to listen! But the fact that he mentioned the 2000 election for all of about 1 minute, we should completely ignore that this man has spent some 30 years trying to educate people about these dangers, only to have it fall on deaf ears.

I was fortunate enough to come across a few people who appreciated his efforts. A girl from English mentioned that she liked what Al Gore was doing, another guy said he would have voted for him in 2000, and a friend in Geometry said he thought it was very good and that people need to be informed about this issue. That made me feel a little better.

While all these people are busy treating him like crap, I'm becoming more convinced that he should be the next President. I have always liked him, but when I consider the fact that he knew the War in Iraq was a bad idea when many others didn't, and that he has put more effort than anyone into an issue that EVERYONE should be talking about, it seems clear to me that he has the brains AND THE JUDGEMENT that we desperately need.

So thank you, Mr. Gore, for all that you have done and continue to do. There are still plenty of us who appreciate your work.

1. Not only do we need Al Gore to be the next president, the whole world needs him

4. What we need is to get moving against Global Warming

all of us, each and every individual.

The new US Congress & Senate appears to be doing so, and the next Dem President - whoever he/she is - I believe will do so as well.

Al Gore as President is not something you need. Heeding his message is what we, and the world, needs.

2. I also saw it in chemistry

but I didn't find it as "exciting" as everyone was saying. That might have something to do with the fact I have followed weather, mainly tropical weather, for many years now and knew some of the stuff he was going to say.

3. You didn't find it "exciting", fair enough. Did you find it visually

stunning, and accurate/truthful?

5. It's not a very exciting documentary, but it IS very compelling

Just the facts that Gore put out had me hanging on each word. But Powerpoint presentations aren't too exciting.
